The Universal Widget API offers a powerful framework for Web widgets development - not only for Netvibes widgets, but also for many other environments. With the UWA, you only need one API to build widgets for a host of platforms.

UWA is developed by the Netvibes team, but we are open to work with other vendors and Web standards groups.
