FrameChannel Widget Featured on Yahoo!

Our sister site, FrameChannel, is designed for wireless digital picture frames, as you probably know. However, what you may not know is that it works on many other devices, too. FrameChannel works as a screensaver, with Yahoo Widgets, and with Google Desktop.

Today, the FrameChannel Yahoo widget is featured on the front page of the Yahoo Widget gallery.

Yahoo Widgets is a free — and very cool — tool that gives you a bunch of small, specific programs that sit on your desktop and do things like check stocks and weather forecasts.

Since both Yahoo Widgets and FrameChannel are free, there’s no reason to not go download both and start enjoying the benefits of FrameChannel today. There are some reasons besides price that you should download both today:

• Try Before You Buy – If you’ve been thinking of buying a wireless digital picture frame, then using FrameChannel with Yahoo Widgets will give you a taste of how cool FrameChannel would be on your frame. And who knows? You might like it so much that you’ll order a frame today!
• Compelling Content – FrameChannel gives you a lot more than access to photos. It’s got over 200 content channels for you to choose from to create your own customized channels. From jokes to pictures from NASA and the AP, from cartoons to news feeds to National Geographic images, it’s got it all. And almost all content is free.

Now that FrameChannel is live and open for anyone to get a free account, there are just two things I’m waiting for:

1. FrameChannel on a Frame – Having FrameChannel run on the desktop is cool, but it will be even cooler to see it running on a wireless frame hanging on a wall or sitting on a desk. FrameChannel is already being used by a couple of frame manufacturers, and according to our interview with FrameMedia co-founder Alan Phillips, more are on the way.
2. The Christmas Rush – Pretty much everyone is expecting this Christmas to be the breakthrough year for digital picture frames. Which is great. Even greater? All the new potential users for FrameChannel. Because it’s easy for users to create and publish their own channels that anyone can subscribe to, I think we’re going to be seeing a lot of exciting, innovative new content on FrameChannel after the holidays.

For now, though, you can put your early adopter hat on by downloading the FrameChannel Yahoo widget.
