Tuesday, October 7, 2008 at 5:23PM
When we launched the Widgetbox Blog Network a couple weeks ago, you probably noticed that the Sports Channel was powered by Yardbarker.com.
Well today, we have officially launched the Yardbarker Network Widget - which features the best content from Yardbarker's network of 600+ sports blogs. You can create your own widget by choosing either a favorite team or sport. The widget then is dynamically updated with the freshest, most popular content from Yardbarker.
You can create your own widget by visiting Yardbaker and if you are a sports blogger, you are encouraged to join the Yardbarker Network and have your content seen by their network's 10,000,000 monthly uniques.
Here are some timely examples of widgets - one for the Boston Red Sox and one for the NFL:

When Widgetbox debuted its blog network last month at BlogWorldExpo, I described it as “Web rings 2.0.” Today, that vision has come a bit more full circle, as the company has announced a partnership with Yardbarker that will feature Widgetbox Sports Channel widgets being dropped on the more than 600 sports-related blogs in Yardbarker’s network. The deal is exclusive, meaning if you want to participate in the Widgetbox Sports Channel, you’ll also need to join Yardbarker.

For all the Detroit Lions fans (the 5 that still exist) this will make a great accompaniment for Pistons, Red Wings and Shock news...
I am not into sports but hey, great for sport fans I guess.
I didn't know about the Yardbarker. Thanks for the introduction. I would check it out.
Wow, great platform for sports bloggers to promote their blogs.
Yard Barker gives you good access to almost all the biggest sport blogs.
Yaaaaar. I mean Yard Barker!
It's not just for sports fans. Everyone could use something like this!
AZFlash...I am one of the five Detroit Lions fans. I have to admit for as much as I hate the 0-16, I will always be there for them. Thank goodness for the Pistons and RedWings. Who watches the Shock anyway...I don't care if they have 3 championships!
BTW, This new launch of content is outstanding. Finally!

Getting news feed every now and then. What's more,just from your own blog!Love the team up!
Its' good news for all sport lovers!
Looks like widgetbox are anticipating more companies for integrations.
I'm sure my boyfriend will have this on his extreme sports blog the moment I tell him about it.
Great! I love sports. Shall place a sports widget on my blog.
Great news for all sports blogger. This will help doubling their traffic flow to their blogs. With news dynamically updated, they will not be afraid of missing out any news and do not need to constantly check sports new website for updates.
Having thoughts of collaborating with widgetbox is a good choice as many will be hoping to receive news every moment without trouble. This will attract numerous young generation supports as the widgets layout is changeable.
Widgetbox will gladly accept integration with well-known companies so as to drive more users to utilize widgets from them. This will in turn increase traffic for both sides. If there are more than one collaboration, I don’t see why widgetbox can’t get the first place this year for the widgets category award.
An excellent widget for sports bloggers.. but it not my niche.
