Hi fellow bloggers!
In trying to find a new blogroll type of widget for Typepad (as many of my blogger customers love the BlogRoll), I could not find the Widget gallery any longer. So I emailed TypePad and they replied:
The widget gallery has been removed since we were not keeping it updated. We'll look into adding it back in the future if possible.
However, you can always search for a specific widget via Google or go to a widget listing for a service (Twitter's, for example, is here: http://twitter.com/goodies/widgets) and then add the code to your blog by going to Blogs > Design > Content. Select Widgets and then the "Embed your HTML" option and click the "Add this module" button. You would then paste your code into the new pop-up window.
I just wanted to let you know in case you were looking for that old, great, easy to find tools for TypePad – it is no longer.
Here is Typepad's list of favorite widgets though:

Stay tuned…I will be sharing shortly how to create a blogroll type application for Typepad!
Happy Blogging!

Thanks for this information! Typepad still refers to its Widget Gallery so I was going nuts trying to find it!
I guess I’ll have to browse your blog to find your discussion on how to add a typepad blogroll. Thanks.
