Widget Watch: Cricket Scores

By C.K. Sample, III

My good friend Jason lives in London now, and I can tell the British culture is taking its toll on him as he just sent me a link to Cricket Scores 1.0. This little widget displays the latest cricket scores from all over the world, grabbing the information from ECB.co.uks RSS cricket scores.

If it is a particularly cricket-heavy day, the scores will scroll up and down in the widget's window. I've never understood cricket.  It's always struck me as though baseball knocked up soccer / football, cricket was born, and left in a basket on the British Empire's doorstep.

Keep in mind, I am not a spectator of sports, but for those of you who are, this might be right up your alley. . . . or cricket lane (is there such a thing as a cricket lane?).
