Widget For Windows? Widget What?

Widget (computing)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

A widget (or control) is a graphical interface component that a computer user interacts with, such as a window or a text box. Widgets are sometimes qualified as virtual to distinguish them from their physical counterparts, e.g. virtual buttons that can be clicked with a mouse cursor, vs. physical buttons that can be pressed with a finger. Widgets are often packaged together in widget toolkits. Programmers use widgets to build graphical user interfaces (GUIs).

Some say that the word 'widget' is derived from the combination of 'window' and 'gadget';-)
