YouTube Music Album Widget
Excellent music album widget that displays YouTube music videos based on a simple search on Japanese music search engine "Playtable". Search, click on a desired album, and the code to your widget will appear on the top right of the screen above a YouTube video. The code is not of the YouTube video, but of the videos from the album. Great, easy to set up widget. Don't let the Japanese fool you, anyone can search and use this website.

Drop Burger Widget
One of the most original widgets coming out of Japan. This widget makes a burger out of your webpage. That's all it does. And if you go to the widget's webpage, you can enter the URL of any webpage and see the same effect. It then shows how many calories the burger has and how many Yen it costs. Crazy! You can get the widget by going to the widget's webpage and clicking the text [ブログパーツはこちら」 that appear on the top right of the screen.

MOMODESIGN Japan Autobahn Widget
I haven't seen a widget quite like this one. It displays a video of racing through the streets of Tokyo, in first person. And it has a clock. The code is easy to spot to the left of the widget on the widget's web page. Check out the other cool similar videos on the website.

Big Globe Japanese Hot Spring Widget
Big Globe offers a variety of high quality widgets which display images of hot springs from all across Japan. Not only images that you can control, but click on any image and go immediately to that hot spring's website. Of course Japanese is needed at this point, but the sites sometimes offer some English. Also, use the search button below the images to search your favorite area of Japan. Go to the web page to easily get the code to your favorite widget.
7th place
Imagenavi Floating Gallery (Image Search widget)
Search professional photos on the Japanese image site, Imagenavi, with this floating gallery widget. Clicking on an image takes you to the page on Imagenavi where it is displayed. You can also search Imagenavi right from the widget. A great resource for images found only on a Japanese website. Please note however that all images on Imagenavi are done by professionals and must ultimately be purchased to be used. Go to the widget's website. Select the color of the widget in step 1. Select the type of images to be displayed in step 2 (for example, nature, people, sweets, animals, etc...). And in step 3, click on the button on the bottom left encircled in orange and the code will appear immediately.

This TV has channels pre-selected, but allows you to choose from tons of different channels around the world. A great accessory for your blog.

A great widget to display images of your choosing from across the web. Go to the web page to set the parameters and get the code. The top entry is the keyword for the images you are looking for. For example, [Cats]. Next, enter the number of images you want to display in the widget. Then select background color folllowed by text color. Next is the size (horizontal x vertical). Finally, press the large [リンク作成] button to generate the code and preview the images. Then just copy and paste the code.

Hanging Train Advertisements
OK, this widget is just for those who can read Japanese, sorry. But this cool widget automatically updates and displays the advertisements currently hanging the trains in Japan. You can enlarge the frame, go forward and back, and there is also a link to the ad's page. It's easy to get the code. Press the [利用する] button and then press the top choice [ ブログに貼る] and then copy the script. The bottom choice allows you to get a desktop version. If there is anyone interested in this verson and needs help with the instructions, drop us a comment. A great webpage or desktop widget for those in marketing.
