The Like Box is another good tool

iTunes
Here’s the official iTunes widget builder for creating widgets for anything you can buy/sell on iTunes including music, apps, books and more.

Here’s the code for an example album for Antonia Bennett
<iframe src=”http://widgets.itunes.apple.com/itunes.html?wtype=2&app_id=553887498&country=us&partnerId=0&affiliate_id=0″ frameborder=0 style=”overflow-x:hidden;overflow-y:hidden;width:250px;height:300px;border:0px” ></iframe>

Here’s the live widget

Another useful widget from iTunes is for creating a playlist of different songs for a particular artist that you want to feature in the live widget. For example, I added some songs from iTunes for Antonia Bennett.

Here’s the actual code that created that live widget playlist
