Local Pollen Count Gadget Update

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

pollenscreenshot.pngI just released the initial version last night, so it may come to a shock to all eight unique visitors (according to Google Analytics) that there’s a new version already. However, I’m a big believer in release early, release often. (Of course, that’s not always doable with a one-man team; yet, it’s oftentimes more doable.)

Anyway, the new version of the gadget adds information about the primary pollutant in the air. Currently in Boston, for example, it’s particulate matter. Who knew there was tree pollen floating around in winter?

If you already have the gadget installed, then it’ll update automatically. If you don’t have it, then what are you waiting for? Go install it on iGoogle!

Local Pollen Count GadgetSomething that always drove me nuts was that there was no pollen count gadget for iGoogle. What about us allergy sufferers?

Well, now, there is!

I just finished writing this after AccuWeather granted me access to their API. Please try adding it to iGoogle or adding it to your web page, and let me know what you think!
