Summary
While browsing Theme Viewer looking for a cool theme that I could hack up I found theme that was tagged as “Widget ready”. “Humm what’s a widget?”, I asked my self.
A widget is? The creator of WordPress Widgets says this:

“Widgets” is just a silly buzzword we’ve chosen for this sidebar-chopping plug-in we have developed. They could have been called Gadgets or Gizmos or Wizbangs or Whatevers. On the surface, they’re just things you can use to personalize your WordPress site without knowing HTML. Way down deep, they may be something entirely more significant.

That’s cool but what if I don’t like any one of the 54 Widget ready themes? Can I use my own theme and hack this into it?

*UPDATE* The buttonmake has been shutdown. :(

You see them every where, buttons. Not just any button though; these Cool Buttons.

You can find any and every button you cam imagne Steal These Buttons. But if for some reason you can’t find one or you’d like a personal one you can create it at the Button maker.

Just like I did gotfoo?
