Good question. Yes, it is possible to embed a Google Gadget in any web
page. The development documentation site for Google Gadgets is:

http://code.google.com/apis/gadgets/docs/dev_guide.html

A sample Google Gadget looks like the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<Module>
  <ModulePrefs title="hello world example" />
  <Content type="html">
     <![CDATA[
       Hello, world!
     ]]>
  </Content>
</Module>

The Gadget then must be hosted in a variety of possible locations and
then embedded in your site with code similar to:

<script 
src="http://www.gmodules.com/ig/ifr?url=http://shazingo.com/lig/lg/142002.xml&amp;up_extrafeed=http%3A%2F%2Fnewsrss.bbc.co.uk%2Frss%2Fnewsonline_uk_edition%2Ftechnology%2Frss.xml&amp;up_extratitle=Technology&amp;up_subject=BBC%20News&amp;up_entries=6&amp;up_summaries=300&amp;up_selectedTab=&amp;synd=open&amp;w=320&amp;h=360&amp;title=BBC+News&amp;border=%23ffffff%7C3px%2C1px+solid+%23999999&amp;output=js";></script>
