What Apple widgets have you downloaded?

I love widgets, and basically browse the most popular ones at Apple to determine which ones to try. I like map-based ones, lots that tie into Google, and still have a gas price one (even though it's always Costco as the price leader). The motion satellite weather widget from The Weather Channel always looks good on an idle screen...

I have to admit, though, I haven't gotten comfortable with them to the point where I'm always bringing them up to get a quick bit of information. They're still more toys to me, and I'll more likely than not fire up a web browser and go somewhere online, before even realizing I could "conveniently" get the same stuff with a widget.

I haven't tried the more whimsical ones, though, like the Simpsons Quote Generator...
