title: How to get started with Windows 7 gadgets
body: <p>I have never programmed a gadget for Vista or Seven, but I would like to try to make one. But where do I start? I have tried to search around on google and msdn, but I haven't managed to find anything useful. Either very, very old stuff (Vista beta stuff), already made gadgets or differences between gadgets in Vista and Seven. But that doesn't help me, since I don't have a clue how to make a gadget in the first place... I haven't even managed to find out what they are written in...</p>
  
  <p>So, could anyone help me out with a kick start?</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Where do I start?</li>
  <li>What do I need to know?</li>
  <li>What are they written in?</li>
  <li>How are they "packaged"?</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>In other words, how do I get from a clean install of Windows 7 with Visual Studio to a working Gadget that I can install and put on my Windows 7 desktop.</p>
