Pageflakes team has been really pushing the envelope in the home page services market. With a new feature release, you can now take their Pageflakes’s flakes outside their homepage. As part of this change, you can grab the html code of any of your widgets located at Pageflake and insert that into your site or blog.
Still I would like the option to export widget code from any of the public pages located at Pageflakes. Should expect Pageflakes to enable selection and export of multiple flakes simultaneously.
Personally I think this is a really really cool option that can have huge impact spread of widgets. Smart guy Hooman at Widgify has more thoughts on this.

Israel based widget syndication and analytics startup Musestorm had already launched cross platform support for widgets last month. Widgets generated through Musestorm platform currently work on web, Google Desktop, Yahoo Widget Engine, with support for Mac, Vista, Mobiles, and IMs under works. Besides this Pageflakes and Yourminis already allow uses to take their widgets beyond the homepages services, and I am pretty sure each of these startups would sooner or later hit the universal ground.
