[Weather] Another station for sale

[Ray Dzek]

You could do a google gadget 
(http://www.google.com/apis/gadgets/index.html) or a Wordpress plugin 
would be nice.  Then you could have your station weather on your own 
blog.  I would love to be able to syndicate my weather display live to a 
small widget, but currently that is not possible.  The only option is 
static images.
