There is something reassuringly convergent about Netvibes, yet I fear is still has some usability issues to work through. Indeed, to my agency I’ve recently identified it as an example how of increasingly capable and functional tools can create towering barriers for users. We strive to deliver digital experiences, be they to communicate information, to shape brand messages or, simply, to build/nurture communities.

I use Netvibes and agree it is (philosophically) moving us in the right direction. It isn’t perfect yet and we still face a design challenge creating tools as usable as they are powerful. As you continue to point out, it is an ongoing and evolutionary process.

I like the idea. You could think Outlook (and I guess other alternatives similarly) has “widgets” for calendar, email, todos, etc. But doing it the netvibes way, the start page information could be a lot more specific, only listing information for the current project for instance. And it would be very easy to change and customize the view often to best suit the changing work situations and provide the information that needs most attention.

Hi JP,

Amazing. I just looked at the netvibes page a few minutes ago, I can see how I could make this a true browser home page. I see you have been in a spanish mood music wise today and I have been checking out last FM as I add Mahler to what will be a terabyte of mp4 files by the time I finish digitizing my classical CDs. I spent a year in London (1965-1966) at the LSE. What a golden age. I heard many of the Mahler Symphonies performed at the Royal Festival Hall before I ever heard them recorded.

Merry Christmas JP. You are wishing everyone an early new year. Trust we will hear from you before the new year rings in.
