I love video games. Over the past year I have been creating video game countdown timer gadgets for the Vista sidebar. The gadgets themselves are updated in real time from my server. That way if the release date changes then that will be reflected in the gadget.
One of the game’s I had created a gadget for starting advertising pre-order specials. I then had an idea: “Wouldn’t it be nice if I could provide video game deals to users?”.
I’m always looking for specials on games. I usually stick with used games since they are a fraction of the price of new retail games. After searching the web I’ve come across what I think is a gold mine.
GameFly has a huge weekly sale on all kinds of used video games. I have managed to put together a weekly listing of deals that I provide in RSS.
The deals can be subscribed through the RSS feed or eventually be available through a sidebar gadget.
