Yeah, the problem with widgets is that they're not very discoverable.  A more worthwhile effort might be to integrate better with Google Now, so that our content would be exposed whenever the user performs any kind of search from the device.

I'm glad you like the widgets!

Before investing any more resources into widgets, we'll need to see how much they're used relative to our other features. We suspect that they will not be used much, but chose to prioritise getting them out because Dmitry already had a proof of concept patch ready which just needed some minor design polishing.
