widget idea for ebay!!
 
hay guys, i shoild probably start off by saying im not a developer, and have no programing skills, however i was thinling it would be cool if we could have an ebay app similar to that of the fabebook status app!

by this i mean it would be cool to have an app that scrolled threw your watched items, with the time remaining and price showing!
also maybe creating a stciky for any thing your bidding on!

i have n idea if any of this is possible! but if any body wants to have ago it could be a coll widget :)

any thoughts on this?

cheers snake

Not a bad idea, but I don't think the eBay API is open enough to allow something like this. I wanted to create a website that customized the eBay listing format without using an iframe, but as far as I saw, you have to go through all these processes to certify your app for use with eBay and it still wouldn't have given me the results I wanted.

I haved a similar idea in my mind sometime ago (and I think I have some piece of code somewhere on my disk), but I abandoned it a little bit. With the N900, ebay is almost usable/acessible from the browser. BTW you can put this idea on brainstorm and see what happening :)
