web 2.0 application: protopage draft!
TRANSCRIPT
Protopage = A Web 2.0 application
allowing you to create your own personal page
Access on computer or mobile device!
Personal page can include:
images
articles
media
reference material
blogs
websites
“Protopage is significantly easier to use... Dragging
widgets around is smooth as butter, and you can resize
any individual widget to take up more than one
column. Creating new widgets is easy and intuitive,
and feed widgets look much better than regular feed
widgets on NetVibes. Anyone can get up and running
with a good-looking page in minutes since it's a bit
more one-size-fits-all.” (- Gordon, Whitson: LifeHacker)
“Unlike other start pages that took huge
amounts of venture capital and underwent
forced sales, Protopage is completely
independent and debt free, and we hope to
be around to celebrate our 50th birthday
one day if the internet is still around…”
