Dilbert Widget - in color!

February 2nd, 2008 · 11 Comments

I get a Dilbert comic strip delivered to my email daily. Looks like United Feature Syndicate came up with a widget for us to show off on our sites’ sidebars or content pages. They’re in color too! Check it out, below. Different sizes are available.

    Hi John. There seems to be a sudden interest in the blogosphere to widgetize everything. Dilbert’s is one of better widgets out there. Now, if we can figure out where to place it in our already crowded sidebar…

    Hi Marjie. With the widget, you can now be reminded of it again. Every morning, this time. ;-)

    Pretty cool strip. Don’t overcrowd your sidebar now!

    Hi Leon. Yeah, the widget is kinda fat — or is it, phat? ;-)

    That is pretty cool. Except, yeah, it looks pretty huge. And I think it’d work way better as a one-panel widget, like for Far Side or (ugh) Family Circus type comics. If I have to scroll through a widget just for 3 or 4 panels, it hardly seems worth it.

    Oh and Rudy, you have officially been tagged.

    @Andrew:
    Yeah, nothing beats at seeing the comic strip in its entirety, at once. If I have to scroll around, it’s a little bit annoying. But I suppose you can get use to it.

    @Christy:
    There are many more comics out there. Here’s the definitive list.

    Awesome, I LOVE Dilbert!

    I don’t read many comics (actually, just three of them). Dilbert is a regular because it deals with corporate life. I can totally relate to it.

    Michael, you have an interesting profession: voice-over. You’re like that movie guy announcer.
