NetVibes’s Widgets


My feeling though is that all the small players are competing for some of My Yahoo's 50 million users. Netvibes may well be a "super-personalized homepage", but My Yahoo has a super-advantage with its 50M user base.
I was actually wondering recently whether Netvibes would be an acquisition target for Yahoo, so that the big Y could get some of that super functionality that Netvibes offers. But it now seems that Yahoo wants to build up their own service, in-house.
Netvibes Launches "Coriander Edition" - a SUPER Personalized Homepage – Read/Write Web

Personalized Homepageで有名なNetVibesだが、50百万人のユーザーを抱えるMy Yahooが圧倒的に優位にある。RW/WはYahoo!NetVibesの高度な機能を目的に買収するのではないかとの観測を持っていたそうだが(えー嫌だ)、どうやらYahoo!は自社製作の方向となったようだ(ほっ)。
