How can I learn more about widgets? I am still in the newbie stage with mediawiki. Forgive me if my question sounds dumb or naive but...It sounds like it might be an easy concept, though. Conceptually, how is a widget approach different than the embedvideo extension. I do see that one could actually include twitter widgets, I guess to have a running display of the latest tweets on a page/article? Thanks, Bruce
