so far there are not so many, really useful Gadget for iGoogle out there, except some google ones... but now I have created a must-have, which integrates a few hundred different search engines. It's easy to use, fully customizable and offers 8 languages. Just try it out and you will love it:

Feedback is really appreciated |
Why do you need inlining? Do you modify the page? |
The gadget doesn't modify your page at all!
The Problem is, that without inlining the gadget would be displayed in a frame. This makes it really difficult to automatically and smoothly adapt the module height (even with using the google dynamic Height module) when changing the browser size or adding searches. |
Sorry for my last post. I just took a deeper look into the google specs and now its working without inlining.
Ionut Alex. Chitu: Thank you very much for your input!!!! |
Maybe you should detect the language (the international Google domain) and automatically add some popular search engines.
Also, Altavista=Yahoo, you should replace Lycos with Ask and About.com should be in the knowledge category. hakia is not a dictionary or encyclopedia. For the finance category, Yahoo Finance, Google Finance are better choices. |
PS: The Google directory gadget search is pretty weak. I entered [multi search light], the exact name of the gadget, and pretty much every other gadget was ranked first (including something called "sexy search"...)... and that was 3 result pages all in all. |
