What are Financial Widgets?

The term 'Widget' was originally used as an abbreviation for 'window gadget' and was first applied to user interface elements during Project Athena in 1988, a joint project of MIT, Digital Equipment Corporation, and IBM. The first web widgets were mostly link counters and advertising banners. Now days, however, the concept of web widget typically refers to a portable chunk of agnostic code that can be executed in a browser. In other words, a widget is anything that can be embedded to a web page that is not static. Other terms used to describe widgets include: gadget, plug-in, module, webjit, snippet, and flake.
