AOL announced today that it's acquired widget technology company Goowy Media, which facilitates widget creation, syndication and reporting, and offers a widget-based advertising solution.
Goowy also offers a consumer destination gallery (www.yourminis.com) that lets users discover widgets for their blog, website, startpage or desktop.
AOL worked with Goowy in the past to provide original widgets for myAOL - at the bottom of the page is an example of a Goowy widget.
