Gadgets powered by Google are miniature objects that provide cool and dynamic content that can be placed on any page on the web.

It’s very  friendly and lovely that I enjoy using it very much.

To install it you just need to run following code in a terminal window:

sudo apt-get install google-gadgets-gtk

when install finish,you can open it up at Applications–>Internet–>Google Gadgets(GTK)
