Hey, I've just moved the webslice plasmoid to kdereview, for inclusion in KDE 4.4.
The webslice applet is there to put an interactive part of a webpage onto Plasma as an applet. You can specify an element with a CSS selector (a.k.a. the nice way) or by its geometry (the way that works for semantically-not-so-nice webpages, but can easily break). This can be handy if you want to monitor only the news box on a webpage, for example. The webslice widget uses Qt WebKit for rendering the element and is fully interactive. I'm planning to make use of the KDE integration soon that has just entered kdelibs, so we also share cookies and login information. There are two widgets coming along with this. First, a SliceGraphicsWidget which is used inside the plasmoid, and a QWidget, which basically wraps the SliceGraphicsWidget. Those are possible candidates for inclusion into kdelibs, if other developers want to use this as well. If you use the qmake-based build, you get a small binary you can play around with. The webslice plasmoid has been written by Richard Moore and me with the help of some of the qtwebkit guys and is another early part of Silk we'd like to see merged. Please let me know if there's anything wrong with it, or where you see room for improvement and I'll address it.
