Good article on Widgets and Media.
Web, computer "widgets" offer branding opportunities - washingtonpost.com.
I like this definition of Widgets:
"Web widgets are designed for blogs, social networking profiles or personal Web sites, enabling users to display personal or third-party content and services without moving to another site. Examples include embedded YouTube videos, movie trailers, audio streams and photo slideshows set to music. Desktop widgets are downloadable tools that provide access to information, content or services without requiring one to launch a Web browser."

Frogans are something like if you imagined a desktop widget that wasn't an app, but rather a lightweight condensed site viewed through a highly secure cross-platform player. No video or sound, but strong on navigation and on branding and social media potential.
