Developing the Username Widget.

We are developing what appears to be a very small widget. A widget where we display the EGT world's user name, if the user is logged in. A example of the widget is shown on the second column on this very page.

Its simple, it just outputs the user name or "Guest (Log In)" as pure text. We are hoping to start adding a web presence widget, a website commenting widget, website rating application, an IM widget and whole slew of different widgets.

Including the possibility of getting the user name via server side code (like php, asp .net), kinda like OpenID. Only EGT World's would control the Log In and Authentication process. All you would have to do is store the user's settings under his/her username.

Kinda neat, but we are far from that. Since we are creating are widgets to intergrate well with your style, and making sure they are secure.
