Google homepage module

• Mario Menti
• http://backstage.msurveys.com/#goog

This is a port of the live.com gadget, for use with Google's personalised homepage.

If Google accept it, it will eventually appear in their directory, in the meantime if you're interested you can install it by adding the developer module from the google.com/ig page (click Add Content > Create a Section and enter "developer.xml" in the text field), then add my module from the url http://backstage.menti.name/google/nownext.xml

Functionality-wise it does exactly the same as the live.com gadget:

* hover with your mouse over the programme title to see programme synopsis
* auto-refreshes every 10 minutes, or refresh manually using the refresh button
