The ability of a user to utilize a resource regardless of disability or impairment is commonly referred to as accessibility. When designing your gadget, alternative methods—software or hardware—may be required to use your gadget and should be considered in its design.

In addition to standard mouse interaction, the Windows Sidebar is keyboard-accessible through the use of the following keyboard shortcuts:

* Windows logo key+SPACEBAR brings the Sidebar to the foreground and sets focus to the Add Gadgets icon.
* Windows logo key+G brings the Sidebar to the foreground and sets focus to an installed gadget. Repeating this key combination causes focus to cycle sequentially through each installed gadget.
Note This key combination does not expose the gadget settings.
* F1 launches the Sidebar help topic.

Once a gadget has focus, gadget settings, properties, and controls can be accessed by using the following keyboard input:

* SHIFT+F10 opens the context menu which provides access to the gadget settings and other functionality.
* Pressing TAB enters the gadget control hierarchy and sets focus to the first input or hyperlink control in the tab order. Pressing TAB again navigates between controls based on standard HTML tab order or as defined by the gadget developer.
* Arrow keys move a gadget around the desktop if Move has been selected from the gadget context menu. Otherwise, the arrow keys may navigate to adjacent user interface (UI).

Since a gadget UI is built using standard HTML, a gadget developer can make their gadget more accessible by following some basic guidelines:

well ravi When you are confronted with Google gadgets for the first time you
might have several overlapping gadgets, and seemingly no place to
click on to drag them somewhere else. the trick is to click with the
middle mouse button, or if you have a two button mouse to press the
alt-key while left clicking anywhere on the gadget to drag the gadget

iGoogle supports the use of specially developed "gadgets" to display content on a users page. The gadgets interact with the user and utilise the Google Gadgets API. Some gadgets developed for Google Desktop can also be used within iGoogle. The Google Gadgets API is public and allows anyone to develop a gadget for any need.

Google also allows all users to create a special gadget that does not require the use of the Gadgets API. The gadgets are designed to be shared with friends and family. The special gadgets must be created using an online wizard and must be of one of the following types:

"Framed Photo" - displays a series of photos,
"GoogleGram" - creation of special daily messages,
"Daily Me" - displays user's current mood and feelings,
"Free Form" - allows the user to input text and an image of their choice,
"YouTube Channel" - displays videos from a YouTube channel,
"Personal List" - allows the user to create a list of items,
"Countdown" - countdown timer
Navigate to the Google website and sign in to your Google account. If you do not have a Google account, you can click on "Get Started" to create one.
Step2Note the white bar across the top of the website. This bar is how you control what Google page you want to see. Choose "iGoogle" to start personalizing your own Google page.
Step3Click on the "Add Stuff" at the top of the website. This will take you to the selection of Google gadgets.
Step4Pick some Google gadgets to add to your iGoogle page. Browse through the gadgets using the categories at the left and when you find one you want to add click on the "Add It Now" button.
Step5Put your gadgets where you want them. You can move gadgets around your iGoogle page by clicking and dragging. You can also remove them by clicking on the "X" and change their settings by clicking on the arrow.
Step6Add more tabs to get more organized. Click on the "Add a Tab" link at the top to add more tabs to your iGoogle website. You can add Google gadgets to each tab so you don't have to have all of them on one page. To add a gadget to your new tab, click on the tab and then click on "Add Stuff."

well;
Current in-room sets reportedly are being replaced with 32-inch LCD HD units. (See what happens when prices drop so low?)

Customers will have access to what Marriott calls "digital connectivity panels" that will allow laptops, iPods, camcorders and some PDA devices to the hooked up.

(No word on connectivy charges -- but free would be nice.)

Marriott said most of its high-end hotels also will receive cable and satellite upgrades, and the number of available free channels (SD and HD) will nearly double to more than 60.

The Marriott, JW Marriott and Renaissance brands will receive the upgraded amenities first, with 25% of the rooms and suites designated to receive the upgrades having them by the end of 2007.

Click on “Add by URL”. (screenshot)

Step 4:

Insert the RSS Feed URL, (for example: http://decoding.wordpress.com/ feed/).
Click on “Add”. (screenshot)

Step 5:

Return to the iGoogle Homepage, you should now be able to see the new Gadget.
Click on the top-right small arrow, and then on “Edit settings”.
Select how many items you want it to display, and “Save”. (screenshot)

That’s it, enjoy

Gadgets can be moved around the page. This means you can have the more important gadgets on top and the less important ones below. Moving gadgets can be done by clicking the title bar of a gadget and dragging to its destination. The gadget will automatically dock alongside the other gadgets.

well , When you're out and about, these fun, powerful, and easy-to-use devices will keep you connected, entertained, and, in the case of the electric bicycle, maybe even a little more fit (if you can be bothered to pedal from time to time). They won't bog you down, whether your travels take you around town or around the world.

A Thumb's Best Friend
While others try to convince themselves that the iPhone's touchscreen isn't clumsy, you'll be spared their secret frustrations when you use the Motorola (NYSE:MOT) Q9h smart phone. Its plump, soft-touch QWERTY keyboard makes firing off e-mails, taking notes, and entering Web addresses exceptionally easy. This powerful update to the Motorola Q comes with the zippy Opera Web browser (for taking full advantage of AT&T's (NYSE:T) high-speed HSDPA data network) and stereo Bluetooth, so you can listen to your tunes with wireless headphones. You can even get turn-by-turn directions with the new assisted GPS feature.
$299, www.wireless.att.com

Now in Stereo
Like listening to MP3s on your cell phone? Check out the Plantronics (NYSE:PLT) Voyager 855. It includes a detachable cable with a tiny earbud at the end, which allows it to convert from a Bluetooth headset to wireless stereo headphones. If you're rocking out and a call comes in, just slide the boom microphone out to answer it. Slide it back in to end the call; the music will pick up where you left off.
$149, www.plantronics.com

Instant Entertainment
The Archos 605 Wi-Fi portable media player does more than play your digital music and video files. With it, you can order and download flicks wirelessly from a Wi-Fi hot spot. Fire it up, and you'll be able to choose from more than 5,000 movies on CinemaNow and stream free videos from YouTube. Movies look great on the 4.3-inch high-resolution touchscreen. Capacities range from 4 gigabytes (enough room for five movies) to 160 gigabytes (200 movies).
