Abstract

Method and system for client-side communication among widgets. In one embodiment, instructions may be processor-executable within a system to implement a web browser and a number of widgets configured to execute within an execution environment provided by the web browser. The web browser may be configured to obtain content from servers external to the system, and members of at least a subset of the widgets may be configured to communicate with one another without interacting with any of the external servers.
