Google Elements – Widgets for your website

Just released today: a new tool called Google Elements that allows you to easily embed a Google map, spreadsheet, Calendar, and more in your website. Using their tool you’ll generate bits of code which you can paste into your website editor or code. If you’re not sure how, and you’re running WordPress, my recent post on how to add a Google Calendar to your website may help. (Though admittedly it’s not a full tutorial on pasting in HTML stuff – maybe I should do one of those…)

The nice thing with these tools is there’s less need to edit the HTML – just select one of several sizes for the widget and you’ll get code to suit.
