Gadget Minimizer

The new iGoogle has lots of great features, but for some reason Google removed the Minimize function, where seldom-used gadgets would take up less space when a "collapse" icon was clicked. Worse, since this function has disappeared, any gadgets you have minimized when Google cuts your iGoogle over to the new format become inaccessible – because there's no longer a mechanism to restore them!

In response to this oversight, I've created the Gadget Minimizer. Add it to your iGoogle and you'll regain the ability to minimize and restore all your gadgets.

Click this button to install the Gadget Minimizer on your iGoogle home page. This gadget isn't available for other, non-iGoogle pages. And please note that Google may give you a security warning because this gadget needs fairly deep access (known as inlining) to work its magic; you just need to click OK when the message appears.
