You might have seen the new Desktops and Sharing menus already:
We are happy to announce that we added a new feature to Widgetop. Now you can share your desktop and let your friends or even anybody else access it and see your widgets. Of course your settings are safe because a shared desktop can’t be modified by the viewers, only by yourself.
How to share your desktop:
A shared desktop can be opened read only by this URL:
http://www.widgetop.com/shared.html?page=<desktop_id>
or as the modifiable start desktop by this URL:
http://www.widgetop.com?page=<desktop_id>
Here is the URL of the default desktop (desktop_id = default):
http://www.widgetop.com/shared.html?page=default
By clicking the Desktops menu you can open the directory of publically shared pages:
Similar to our widgets gallery you can find the newest and most popular desktops, access them alphabetically by title or search them by title and description.
Happy Sharing and impress us and all other Widgetop users with your widget desktops!

You can link to the desktop and open our Universal YourMinis Widget with any widget from the YourMinis directory.
(from our syndication page)
Link to the Widgetop desktop http://www.widgetop.com
and add the URL parameter ?addYourMini=[WidgetURL]
where the [WidgetURL]

in the URL.
Hint: make sure you escape your URL parameter properly.
This link will open your desktop with the Yourminis YouTube widget.
