London Restaurant Blog Search Widget

Let’s see if this works…In my previous post, I told you about the custom search engine I’ve created…the one that will help you search for London restaurant reviews across a number of blogs. I’ve taken that a step further and made a widget that you can embed into your own Web site…just click the Get Widget option at the bottom of the widget. This will give you the option to add the widget to Typepad, Blogger, iGoogle, anything really.

For this post, I used the option to directly embed the code, but note that because Typepad is a little fussy about Javascript, you’ll have the best luck if you embed the code in the Edit HTML view–and save it within that view as well. You’ll notice that you can’t see the widget in the Compose POST WYSIWYG view.

Enjoy! For the bloggers who regularly write about London restaurants, may the widget bring you much traffic. For the bloggers who blog about other things, this is a neat way of introducing your visitors to new blogs.
