If you code in Visual Studio, you've probably heard of Channel 9's Visual Studio plugin that allows developers to earn achievements based on certain criteria met while programming in a visual studio solution.The Visual Studio Achievements plug-in analyzes a background thread each time code is compiled, as well as listens for particular events and actions from Visual Studio. The plugin has a leaderboard on Channel 9's website and there is also a REST API available to query user achievements. I decided to mess around with the API and develop a widget for BlogEngine.net. Now I know there is already a widget that you can easily insert into your theme that does essentially the same thing I created but you don't have the ability to change the data output or design of their widget. I made this pretty quickly and it does need some work. I appreciate any feedback or contributions to the widget.
