Hi Folks,

I'm looking for some advice on how to complete the following task.

Basically I'm writing a flash widget and I'm interested to know what technologies/methods may be used to add a "get this now" button to my widget.

I've seen it on various widgets around the place. You click on a button and are shown a whole load of html embed code that you can copy and paste into say myspace or bebo or whatever.

Thanks

There are 3 convenience providers that you can use in a flash widget to have your widget spread virally. They are:
1. ClearSpring's LaunchPad: [www.clearspring.com] -- this is by far the best options, however, clearspring is now implementing their own stupid rules that will take over your widget and inject ads into it... If you are not willing to pay their fees, stay away
2. Gigya's Widlfire: [www.clearspring.com] -- robust, easy, no payments, no nothing. selection is smaller than Clearspring, but then installation is easier.
3. Widgetbox Viral Installer: [docs.widgetbox.com] -- easiest of the pack, prettiest but also super fresh, so i dunno about installation or how this thing works.

Hope this helps,
Felix.
