These links no longer work as Windows have retired the gallery
None of these work and I cant find a single website that gives useful gadgets for free. I went on a website for a free gmail gadget and guess what?! It actually makes you pay after. If anybody knows a good website for any real cool/handy gadgets please post. xxx
@ Kerenza Tam
All gadget links were working a few days back. Microsoft has decided to discontinue Windows Gadgets site and for the same reason, links are not working now. Sorry.
