Netvibes universe
today I created a new netvibes account for a POC. I wanted to aggregate content on some events on one page in netvibes. Later we want to create a netvibes universe page for VRT. That service is not yet available (coming soon though) and we don’t seem to get in contact with the people behind the site.
I wonder what the setup of netvibes is. For most of the web2.0 sites, it is often not so difficult to figure out. Or they publish themselves the hardware and software setup like the guys from Flickr and LiveJournal.
But in this case, with the widgets and so, the only thing I could figure out is that the services are in PHP. (from the netvibes devblog at http://dev.netvibes.com/blog/.) For the res, hardware? Communication protocol? …
Still I like netvibes and iGoogle but the desktop versions don’t seem to cut it. they consume to much resources, for one. Even Google Desktop that is running as I type, is limited to the notepad, an MP3 player (used as internetradio) and a calendar. The rest is setup, used and then abandoned.
