You guessed it - Facebook!!! 

Our new App Accelerator is taking off like a weed (or a rocket, which I guess goes better with "accelerator" than the whole weed metaphor...), and I couldn't be more excited about it.  As of this morning, 450 Widgetboxers have turned their widgets into Apps - and we only announced this a couple of days ago!  Wow, just wow.  It is so exciting to see the community response to this.  Some of these apps already have thousands of subscriptions, and this is just the beginning.

We are also so thrilled that we have partnered with RockYou to help our community take a first stab at monetizing their widgets through our DevShare program.  As I wrote about before, we firmly believe that the success of Widgetbox is defined by the success of our community, and we will continue to work as hard as we can to bring you widget fame and fortune.

If you haven't App Accelerated yet, be sure to give it a whirl, and then let us know what you think.  We're already hard at work on the next version of the Accelerator, so stay tuned for more widgetastic features.  We hope you are as excited about this as we are!
