As more and more consumers hit the digital highways
entrepreneurs are are hard at work providing new and innovative ways to get more from the online experience. Netvibes is a free service that aims to be your one stop hub for browsing the internet, getting email and interacting with your friends and family.
From Netvibes
Netvibes pioneered the personalized startpage, an alternative to traditional Web portals. With millions of users in more than 150 countries, Netvibes lets individuals assemble all in one place their favorite websites, blogs, email accounts, social networks, search engines, instant messengers, photos, videos, podcasts, widgets, and everything else they enjoy on the Web. Founded in 2005 by Tariq Krim, Netvibes has offices in Paris, London and San Francisco.
Although there are other services that offer similar services; Netvibes does not lock you in to one service and it really is the content you wish to see. Around the middle of February Netvibes will launch a new upgrade to their service called Ginger. The new features should bring a new level of convinence to the end user and save time browsing from site to site. I highly recommend that you check it out for yourself, as you the end user are the final measure of a products success. If you have thoughts, experience’s with Netvibes please drop us a comment.
