Mike Davis's Weblog A blog of what I'm learning and thinking as I go through my days at Sun.

Sun Knowledge Connection and Google???

I was recently reading the blog of Mike Harding, the VP of Customer Network Services, and he had an entry on the Sun Knowledge Connection Early Access release. Since we had a recent "innovation day", I was playing around with some of the Google developer tools that they have and was able to pretty quickly create a Google gadget for the Sun Knowledge Connection search.

If you use the Google Personalized home page you are able to add little gadgets to the page to read news, check sports, check stocks, view weather, and now search the Sun Knowledge Connection! Anyhow, below is a screen shot of my the SKC gadget (I didn't integrate the login yet so you have to already be logged into SKC, minor quirk).

It's not as pretty as the real Sun Knowledge Connection, but I'm not quite the UI expert either. You can click here to just add this to your Personalized Google Page.
