"my
personal pin board and something I would now not cope without –
like your filofax in the 90’s, but better. I can watch students’
updates to our wiki, link to my favourite blogs, collect all my
favourite websites and bookmarks with a Delicious widget, check
my i-calendar, see updates on Twitter and watch Facebook updates
when I have a break - all on one very pretty page
on my desk top…."

HTML reference list) and to manage my To Do lists and my
calendar."

"Netvibes
makes
it possible to
digest the daily
dose of newsfeeds
and other resources
and does that in a
beautiful way. It
allows me to use
external widgets,
keeps it all
organised in tabs en
even allows me to
share all my feeds
with others. The
Netvibes Universes
just rock. Could not
imagine an online
life without it."

"I love having an
online desktop
accessible from anywhere
any machine, as I spend
my life trying to cope
with working with differen computers. It
helps me monitor forums
and blogs through RSS
feeds, and my Flickr
feed to new posts tagged
with knitting brings me
joy daily!"
