A source tells us that JS-Kit is gearing up to announce a handful of major publisher partnerships in the next few weeks. These partnerships will push out JS-Kit's widgets to over 20 million new users.

What makes JS-Kit's set of widgets -- which also includes comments, polls, and reviews -- really attractive is how easily they integrate into pages. Widgets generally take just a single line of JavaScript code to get up and running, and no sign up in required. If I've done this properly, a JS-Kit Score widget should appear at the bottom of this post and allow you to rate it.

Of course, because this is the only page on ReadWriteWeb that is running a Score widget, it won't have any data on which content is the highest rated site wide. But the ease of installation is what really catches the eye. JS-Kit is building a suite of tools for web publishers that are modular in nature -- pick and choose which you want to use, and they all play nice and integrate with one another via the Navigator.
