What I want for Christmas is for Google to flesh out Webmaster Central!
Webmaster Central as it now stands is a great start, and it moves toward making life easier for us, but it could still do so much more to improve understanding between webmasters and Google...

What is this obsession with "widgets", "applets", and "gadgets"?
They inevitably end up doing the exact same boring things: weather, sports scores, stocks, dictionary, and maybe a little game. Great. The world of computing has changed forever.
These things are often bloated little programs because they have to run in JavaScript or some other awful language. They never have consistent UIs, so users can't learn many patterns from using one that they can apply to another. Also, it looks like Google doesn't retain any quality control over who can submit "gadgets", so I'm sure it's bound to be abused by people who want to make malware.
