Easy Domain Look-Up Tool - Domize
Domize - the fastest domain name search ever!
Nice, with Domize we can check the availability of domain names. searching for your domain name at Domize is completely encrypted over ssl and send in an asynchronous manner to Godaddy, Doster, Moniker... to check.
I have embedded the iframe widget for blogs and pages, but it seems there is an error on some links for .org domains in the result list, isnt it? ;-)
nice anyway.

8 Steps to Add iGoogle Gadgets to your Gmail Account

1. Check your Gmail settings and select your Google Mail display language 'English (US)' for getting all labs feature from gmail.
2. Then go to 'Settings' again and click on the button 'Labs'.
3. Enable the feature: 'Add any gadget by URL' (bottom of the feature list)
4. Go to iGoogle directory and select your preferred iGoogle gadget.
5. If you have found your lovely gadget, then click on the title of the gadget to get the button 'Share this gadget'!
6. Here you receive an URL, which points to the gadget xml file.
7. After you enabled the feature 'Add any gadget by URL' , go again to your Gmail Settings and you will find a new button next to 'Labs' called 'Gadgets'.
8. There you can insert the clipped url from your iGoogle App.
Update: In some cases (for me) you will get an error message after trying to add the gadget url.
example url:
This url is from Google Map Search and when i try to add this gadget by its URL, i get the error:
for me it works by cutting the long google url to point direct to the igoogle module eg. http://www.google.com/ig/modules/mapsearch.xml
example url:
http://www.google.com/ig/adde?moduleurl=http://www.google.com/ig/modules/mapsearch.xml&source=imag
This url is from Google Map Search and when i try to add this gadget by its URL, i get the error:
Invalid gadget specification. Ensure URL is correct and the gadget does not contain errors.
for me it works by cutting the long google url to point direct to the igoogle module eg. http://www.google.com/ig/modules/mapsearch.xml
[http://www.google.com/ig/adde?moduleurl=]http://www.google.com/ig/modules/mapsearch.xml[&source=imag]
installation steps are better illustrated at How to Add Gadgets to your Gmail Account or here en espanol :)
have fun.
