There's widgets for just about anything you'd like to do.
Widgets for football standings, widgets for watching tv on the
computer, widgets for tv guide, widgets for flight departures and
arrivals, widgets for playing games, widgets for monitoring your
computer's health, you name it, there's probably a widget that handles
it.
But, as for whether they're accessible or not,that depends a great
deal on the widget, who wrote it, what it does, and whether or not it
needs configured separately from it's normal functions.
Basic widgets that simply display information are accessible, but
those who need configuring by what's called flipping the widget cannot
be configured by a vo user w/o sighted assistance.
But, there are a lot of useful widgets out there, so the only way to
tell if the widget you want to use is accessible or not, is to try it,
and see if it behaves for you or not.
I use a few (and finally decided it was time to learn to make them
myself) so I can help if you run into problems.
