One of our favorite free web tools is Widgetbox that helps people create widgets that you can place on your own webpages or blogs. When you “mashup” Widgetbox with Kindle, you can easily let your blog readers or Facebook visitors know about your personal or group’s prayer requests.

Below is a sample of a prayer widget created using Widgetbox for the Quest College Ministry.

How To Create Your Own Prayer Widget

1. Create a free account at Widgetbox.com
2. Choose the “Make a Blidget” feature
3. Copy and paster your personal or group page URL from Kindle when asked for “Your Blog URL”
   1. Examples are like “http://kindlejoy.com/users/show/74″ or “http://kindlejoy.com/group/Questcollegeministry”
   2. Click “Continue” and your widget will be generated.
   3. Follow the Widgetbox instructions on how to place the widget on your webpages, including Facebook and MySpace.
