My questions got answered.

  1. The little flaw in the “market widgets” has been corrected. (indeed, see below.)
  2. The “news markers” will be reintroduced later. Great.
  3. An example of a “prediction widget” is here.
  4. Yes, the HubDub widgets go into feeds. Great.
  5. Yes, the HubDub widgets are dynamic —they will update themselves each time a page loads.
  6. Psstt… I bet people cannot spot the yellow line, below… A pity, that’s the line that gives the latest, most popular odds.

Nigel, it seems that there’s a text line generated, which comes before the chart… Bizarre.

Nigel, those are the market widgets, right? Any chance to have news markers?

I still need to discover the prediction widgets… Any hint? Thanks.

I hope those chart widgets will go thru the feed

Are those charts dynamic? Will they update themselves, later on, Nigel?

PUT YOUR MOUSE CURSOR ON ONE OF THE WHITE DOTS PRESENT ON THE CHART, AND SPOT THE POP-UP MESSAGE.

IF YOU’RE READING THIS FROM WITHIN YOUR FEED READER, GO TO THE BLOG POST, ON THE MIDAS ORACLE WEBSITE, BECAUSE THE BETFAIR CHART WIDGET IN QUESTION DOESN’T APPEAR IN THE FEED.

1. The chart should output the market-generated, implied probabilities expressed in percentages —not those damn decimal/digital odds. (Actually, Boris Johnson is ahead of Ken Livingstone.)
2. The news markers were filled by RIchard Quest, last week-end, during his Central Park escapade, it seems. :-D … I mean, these comments were written in a tabloid way.
3. The blogger who would embed this compound chart would like to write his/her own news markers.
4. Clicking on the “£25 free bet now” area, at the right lower corner, did not open any new browser tab showing the BetFair website because my browser, Mozilla FireFox, “prevented this site from opening a popup window”.
5. The chart widget shows up on the webpage, but not in the feed —most of the blog readership happens in feed readers, nowadays. Just below is a screen shot of the feed of the Midas Oracle .COM blog, where I published one blog post with the BetFair chart widget, and another blog post with the inTrade chart widget. As you can plainly see, the InTrade chart widget can be consumed thru a feed reader, while the BetFair one can’t. (You don’t see that on the screen shot below, but, for your information, all InTrade chart widgets can be seen in a feed reader, including the InTrade compound chart widgets.)
