      <title><![CDATA[New features in WidSets 3.0.3 version]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hello WidSeteers,

Here's a short introduction to the latest WidSets features in version 3.0.3.

- Totally renewed  My Profile:   widget – this is the biggest visible change for you - possibility to share your favorite WidSets content with other WidSeteers by bookmarking and commenting. My Profile widget has the following channels: 

-  My private channel: private messages and bookmarks, news from WidSets, comments and widget recommendations from other members 
-  My public channel:  a public profile page which includes your public bookmarks, other members comments, widgets you’re using and profile info 
-  Subscribed users:  list of other members whose activities you follow 
-  WidStes users:  list of WidSets users sorted by different filters. All latest public bookmarks visible from the community. 

- Bookmarking content: divided to private or public bookmarks 
- Tutorial shown for the first time when opening the application 
- Moving widgets on the dashboard is smoother that before 
- Reporting abusive content /user in mobile end - Do not use this for fun, only in case when you find any offensive or abusive content or comment or user in the service
- Developer site will be closed down soon. Developers who develope widgets with the SDK can upload the new widgets to the beta widgets category at the main site. Developer support and the related material will be available only at Forum Nokia from now on. More about changes on developer site can be checked from here: http://dev.widsets.com/forum/post/2203878/ 

Something new for S60 users!

Some latest S60 devices support web-runtime technology and because of that technology, we have launched a widget library for stand-alone widgets that are simple web applications. Currently the library includes about 1000 widgets. They are same widgets that can be found from the WidSets library, but they run only on certain S60 devices and they don't need WidSets application to be installed first.

Please, check out the compatability with your S60 device from here: http://widsets.mobi/widgets/devices.html

And the widget library can be found from this mobi site. Please, use this site with your mobile browser:http://widsets.mobi/library/

Any comments are welcome!

Cheers,
Tana]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Thanks for your comments, James! 

We are planning to bring the WidSets relaod possibility to more visible place in the future. After that upgrade we have had some hick-ups in the service, and those have been very likely the reason for the fact that you didn't receive the SMS. I just checked out the functionality and I got a response in 7 sec. 

Here's some more instructions for the problem, when WidSets does not start up anymore:
http://www.widsets.com/forum/topic/2/265115311/1/8/

We are doing our best efforts to stabilize the service and we hope to overcome the difficulties very soon.

      <title><![CDATA[Beta widgets in the Library]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hi WidSeteers,

Have you already noticed a new category in the Library? New sub-category called "Beta Widgets" can be found in the end of the category list.

The widgets in this category are our picks from the WidSets Developer site ( http://developer.widsets.com/). These widgets are not verified ones yet, so they might have some faults or they might be a little bit experimental. That's why they are in this own category :) 

Feel free to rate them and raise discussion at the Forum. The Forum has a new category under Widget Comments as the last one on the list. The widgets are some early fruits from our developer community, and the developers would be very happy to hear your thoughts on their master pieces! 

This is a place for the widget developers and you to exchange comments and ideas, so go ahead and be the first one to start the discussion.

      <title><![CDATA[Flagging inappropriate content]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[The content of the WidSets library is published mainly by the WidSets community. When the members of the community publish any content to the library, they agree to obey the terms of the service. If someone in the community publishes content that is inappropriate and offends the terms of service, the other members of the community have right to report about it.

Currently you can find the "Report abusive" possibility for widgets only from the library on the website. Hopefully later this year, we'll have the same feature in the mobile end. 

If you find any other inappropriate content or text elsewhere in the service, feel free to report to us. The reports can be emailed to contacts (at) widsets.com. 

Thanks for your co-operation and helping us the keep the WidSets clean and fun service!

      <title><![CDATA[WidSets for Developers on Forum Nokia from now on]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[The new version of WidSets brought a big change for developers who  develop new widgets with the SDK such as 4 in a row, Boom!, Guitar Tuner and WBrust game just to mention few.

All activities and information for widget developers can be found from Forum Nokia.

Please, read Marko's post at the old Developer site concerning the issue:
http://dev.widsets.com/forum/post/2299865/

      <title><![CDATA[WidSets Challenge 2008 Winners]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[Vodafone Betawine had a competition for students to create new widgets ealier this year. The winners have been annouced at Betawine website. Read the whole story from here:
http://www.betavine.net/web/guest/projects/students/widset_winner08

All winning entries are unique by means of introducing something really new to WidSets.

First Prize
4 in the row, by Lyon Laxman and Klen Copic Pucihar
Innovative utilization of new WidSets SDK features to implement the 1st multiplayer game for the platform. Demonstrates how mobile user experience can be taken towards social communities with ideas applicable in other kinds of widgets as well.

Second Prize
Wburst, by Rauli Laatikainen
Very nice implementation of the casual game with superior finalisation of the implementation including puzzle editor, highscores, and several visually attractive elements. Extremely well playable and addictive gaming experience, with good quality implementation, fitting to mobile phone.

Third Prize
3D Bombus, by Will Bamford
Impressive achievement in taking the popular Bombus game to the 3D space! Game itself as noted by Will is just the first version but surely opens the new level in demonstrating what is technically possible with WidSets SDK and keeps us eagerly waiting for the more productisized release of the 3D Bombus.

All these widgets can be found from the Library now!

Congratulations to all winners and thanks for creating much a great widgets to all of us!

      <description><![CDATA[Hi WidSeteers,

We have opened a new forum for local languages. The first one to start off is the Russian Forum - Российское сообщество. All people who want to discuss about WidSets and anything related to that in Russian, please feel free to share the arena and discuss and help each others. For some strange reason, I will not participate the discussion there...

In the future we will open more local language forums if there will be a need for that. Remember that if you speak Chinease, we have already a localised version of WidSets in Chinease. Check this out: http://cn.widsets.com/ 

Welcome to Russian community! 

If you wish to have some other local forums, please give some feedback to me :)

As you are already registered to the service, use "Login" link in the end of this that page, fill out our user name and password and you are able to install your already personalized WidSets into your mobile.

That's the easiest way!

Another way is to log in with your user name at www.widsets.com and open "My Profile" page and there "Settings". This page has a "Reload" button that send the download link to your miobile via text message.

WidSets will have a maintenance break on Thursday 13 December starting at 07.00 (UTC) and will last around 3-4 hours.

The maintenance break means, that we will update the mobile client and the website - many bug fixes and usability improvements will be in place after that.

I will update this thread as there's more info to be shared.

Thanks for your patience!

      <title><![CDATA[Tough migration for WidSets]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[I have checked this link..that Taina gave
http://www.widsets.com/forum/topic/5/138179102/1/ 

It only applies if one has the application on memory card.

I have an E90, one of the faster Nokia mobiles (350Meg processor).
I do not use my memory card for Widsets.
I have 15 widgets. (inc; my profile and Library).

I will now do a test.

Widsets selected ..
...loading.. took 36 seconds before I see my Widgets..
.. and then the process of selecting/verification of my connection method takes another 10 seconds.

The Widgets then load ..I can select into use my first Widget after 1 minute and 5 seconds.

I would guess that someone with more Widgets and/or a slower mobile could get fed up with waiting and use Opera for web access.
I have to say that when I have tried to promote Widsets by showing it to friends they have often lost interest before I can access a site.]]></description>

Yep, I was able to update Widsets yesterday evening via the link in the reinstall-SMS! I'm experiencing some slowness here in Zambia on both your webpage and in mobile, but that is more likely due to internet-bandwidth here than your service.
