A few years ago I started using Netvibes as my homepage. It was cool because Netvibes allowed me to personalize my page by adding on different widgets that could bring me personalize news. On my page I had widgets for news, weather, Digg, Flickr, Facebook, as well as different tabs where I could put even more widgets for all my different interests. The service did a pretty decent job of keeping me in the loop. It conviently put everything I would normally search for on one website. But I didn't use. Shortly after I discovered Netvibes I abondened it. I think I stopped using it because I already had my internet habits established and going to only one site for all the things I would normally go to many for, was too much to get used to.When I saw that Netvibes Wasabi was ready for beta testing, I thought I'd give it another go. Just to see if maybe this time it'll stick. Basically it is the same service but, shinier and with way more personalization options (which is a good thing). I really don't have anything bad to say about Wasabi (besides a few minor kinks that I think they are working out). If a homepage is what you are looking for, then it is probably for you. But, it ain't for me. I just can't get used to this service. I like going to 25 different websites for all my internet needs, damn it! Stop judging me.
