If Netvibes adds grouping into these widgets, it will become my default twitter client instantly.

Their investors have got the patience of saints. When are these guys going to do something which actually makes money? Netvibes has to be the most overengineered site in the history of the web. That’s not to say it doesn’t have some great features etc. I just don’t see the point unless there’s some kind of financial gain to be had at the end of it.

Listen to Freddy Mini’s comments about the new “drag and follow” widgets:

Netvibes might take this beyond Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace: “if people love it, we can make it work on anything.”

I’ve given it a try and I love it indeed.

Nice! But it looks like there are just too many things.

Hey man — I hear widgets are gonna be all the rage.

Of course that was from a 2007 copy of Newsweek, but…

You got your reply

Besides, lots of people want a truly personalizable page: Netvibes doesn’t have a large logo, a mandatory search engine, offers more than 180,000 widgets to choose from, multiple pages to sort out everything that matters to you, a Public page to publish your interests in a vertical topic, etc, etc, etc…

so, yes, a lot of people uses Netvibes.

I wish they’d make a standalone or Air version so that I didn’t have a 600MB Firefox all the time. Dragging is nice if it doesn’t bring the machine to its knees. I’ve used NV since before Ginger, but it just keeps getting bigger and bigger, and I’m not sure current Javascript implementations are mature enough for it.

I use it too and love it. Main reason is because you can click on the article title in an RSS feed and the full page will show up in a frame. Fewer new windows and tabs and a much easier way of going straight to the articles you want.

Twitter widget works very well too.

Yahoo and Google are big companies but that doesn’t mean they do everything the best.

Honestly, netvibes is way better than igoogle and my yahoo.
The new facebook widget looks very nice. Can’t wait to drag and drop @samyz too.

I am using Netvibes since it was launched and I feel it is the best feed aggregator I have used. Only service that competes with it is Google reader, but I prefer Netvibes because I am used to it and I like the interface.

WOW. this feature seems to be really nice. Eagerly waiting for it to come out.

does anyone honestly use netvibes?
-yahoo has my yahoo.
-google has igoogle.
-you can have multiple homepages in IE8.
those 3 alone make something like netvibes completely useless.
