Thanks for asking that question. I have been working on lots of widgets lately, but it sounds like I need to shift a little bit off that.

Good information! Thanks.
But I'd like to remind you folks that Google also says they're amazing at finding (and penalizing) bought links, indentifying dupe content (and giving rankings to the original) and other stuff that we see around SERPs very often.
So, it's not like giving up widgets (@Dave Dugdale) just because Matt says they are good at identifying useless-keyword-stuffed-perfect-anchor-links widgets. It still might be worth the effort.
Anyone?
Thanks once again, Rebecca!

Frank,
Yes you are most likely right since I still see that widget bait still works well in some verticals.

Thanks for sharing, Dave!
Sure it is the same as with content - create great, original, interesting, compelling, "etc'ing" content/widget and it will work out fine!

Thanks Rebecca, this is good to know. It's nice to hear Mr. Cutts speak on issues like this so we can all be made aware of changes.
