Yup, that one appears to be dead. The domain for the download is for sale. I found a review for the widget which was from 2008 so I guess it didn't catch on. Next question is how to tell Apple?

Which widget were you attempting to download? As others have said, the 
downloads come from the creators of the widgets, not from Apple so it's not a 
curated experience like the iTunes store.

did you make sure your mouse was routed correctly with vo-command f5?  I

hi,
I tried to download a widget but I clicked the VO space command twice quickly. 
this took me to a site whose domain was for sale.
Why has this happened? How do i make them download? If I can figure this out, 
it could potentially be very helpful.

Wow! That has to be one of the most inaccessible interfaces I've run across in 
a while. I didn't actually try to use the site, was just wanting to get folks 
pointed to the source of the pasted HTML in the original email. Anyway, it 
seems that there are three columns rendered as list items and you have to wade 
through all the categories before you can get to the items in a category. 
Instead you can skip all that because they are repeated below the goofy 
columnar widget browser thingie. Just VO-command H a couple times until you get 
to Categories and then follow the links that interest you. After that you'll 
get a fairly navigable list with widget titles and descriptions followed by a 
download link. If the category has a lot of items you can action the number 
links next to the word Pages. It won't indicate what page you are on but it 
does seem to flip to the 4th page if you action the 4 etc.

Seems that you pasted the whole page's contents rather than a link to the page. 
That URL is

Hi,
Here is the link to download dashboard widgets. If you get this to work, and 
can find and open the new widget, please let me know how. I cannot get it to 
work.
