Follow the US Presidential Primaries with UWA widgets
Super Tuesday is (quite literally) right around the corner, and real-time information is where widgets can shine. Indeed, user androostevens understood the need, and submitted no less than 4 Primaries-related widgets.
These widget rely on data from AOL News, which has built a dedicated Elections page. They cleverly mix AOL’s Flash applications with a UWA drop-down menu – which selection is saved in Netvibes. Best of both world: ease of Flash integration, usability of UWA widgets.
The most visually informative one, 2008 Election Primary Results Map, presents the Primary results in one handy map:
The three other widget are just as informative, in a time when numbers keep changing, and results get to their final state: this one will give you the primary leaders for any chosen state, that one gives the Primaries delegate tally for one of the two parties, and the final one combines overall leaders and tally.
So get informed as soon as updates are given! Put these widgets on your Netvibes page – or your Netvibes Universe
Note: sadly, the “See Republican Results/See Democratic Results” doesn’t work. Use the Edit section to change settings…
