Goodreads Widget

November 14, 2008

WordPress.com, the host of this and millions of other blogs, does not allow Flash. That makes it impossible to use widgets such as the one that shows the books I’ve told Goodreads that I’m currently reading.

But is it really impossible? You never know until you try…

  1. [...] Even when the web service hasn’t made its widgets available at WordPress.com, others can use Clearspring to make them available. For example, I’ve done this for Goodreads. [...]


  2. okay you got it in a post…but how do you put it in a side bar???


  3. Ugh, please tell me how you did this. I am having the worst time finding a good/attractive way to post book lists, and this may be my best option if i can make it work.

    Unfortunately, Clearspring is doing away with the widget format I used here. I’ll post about this soon, but it doesn’t look as though there’s a good path forward.

    Was so hoping there was a solution here. Please keep us posted on any new developments.

    Thanks.
