Jeffrey, sorry it's taken me so long to get around to spending time on
testing this. I think I found a couple of bugs. Sorry if they are
logged. I did a quick search and didn't find anything.
I installed the widget in my iGoogle page and selected the Twins
collection and added some items no problem. I signed out and signed
back in to verify that my Twins collection was selected in the the
list (it was). I couldn't add any items though. Clicking the send
button appeared to do nothing. I switched to another collection added
an item, then switched back to the Twins collection and added items
ok. But when I signed out and signed back in, I reproduced the issue.

I also tried this on my iPhone which worked great. I click on the
Quick Entry Widget section and added items. I did run into the same
bug as above though. The only issue on the iPhone is that when you
have the phone oriented normally ie: I guess you call it portrait
mode, you can't get at the send button - it's too far to the right.
Basically, all the widget fields don't fit in the display. I had to
orient the phone sideways to see the whole widget. I wasn't sure if
this was considered a bug or anything we could fix but I logged it
anyway.

Hi Folks,
I'd love it if people could give the new Quick Entry widget a try.
It works with iGoogle, but you don't need an iGoogle account to try
it out.
To get started, just click on
http://fusion.google.com/ig/add?synd=open&source=ggyp&moduleurl=http://widgets.osaf.us/google_entri.xml
The gadget does *not* currently work with IE6, but it's been tested
lightly with IE7, Safari, and Firefox. More testing with these
would be great.
The gadget currently talks to the Chandler instance running at
widgets.osaf.us, which is a copy from a few weeks ago of Hub, so you
can re-use your current Hub account details without fear of
polluting your Hub account.
Things to test:
- Choose different collections
- List of collections, username, and selected collection persist
between iGoogle sessions
- List of collections changes after "Refresh collection
list" (logout) and logging back in as a different user
- Create a note by clicking the Send button
- Create a note by using the keyboard shortcut (Shift-ENTER)
- Ascertain whether you see a status message as you send your note
- If you have an iGoogle account, log in to iGoogle from different
browsers, check that changes to selected collection/logging out are
reflected when refreshing iGoogle in the other browser
A few notes:
The Google version of Quick Entry persists a list of collections and
tickets with Google (not your password, because it's exposed in the
URL and thus could leak out in referrer logs). URLs can't handle
more than 2K of data, however, so the total number of collections
saved is limited to 10.
Next steps are, once we've had a little more testing, to add a link
to the gadget from the hub login page, and to add the gadget to
Google's directory of gadgets.
Thanks!
Jeffrey
