I have been trying
out NetVibes as a personal start
page for the last couple of weeks. So far I like
it and it seems to play well with all my Mac
browsers. Mainly I use the Bookmarks, which I like
having web based so that they are consistent on
all my computers. I find I don't use the web
search much because my browsers all have search
fields. I prefer to use Bloglines to read news feeds
although I may set Netvibes up with a couple of
"Top Stories" feeds from Yahoo and BBC so I can
track world events, but for heavy news reading
I'll stick with Bloglines.
Netvibes was slow to load when I was using dialup,
enough to be annoying, so it is definitely a
broadband only service.
I used to use MyYahoo but I sorta out grew it.
Netvibes is worth trying if you like having a start
page that you can customize.
