Looking for a new browser home page... why not make your own

Picture_1_2 This is the fun part! And better yet, it's free. The more you learn about netvibes, the more you’ll want add, remove, expand, customize and play with it.

When you first logon to http://www.netvibes.com, you’ll see that there’s no logo, just a title that says ‘Type your page title here’. Click it and give your Netvibes a name. You can now click on Sign In prompting the Side Bar to open. Under your netvibes page, register your Email and Password.
Watch the screencast:

Take a look at the modules that are already on your Netvibes page. When your roll your mouse over each module, you’ll see a small menu bar pop-up at the top of the module.

In the module’s menu bar, if you’d like to delete the module, just click X. If you’d like to customize your module’s login information or preferences, click Edit. If you click the little triangle, a list of Module Actions will pop-up, allowing you to change colors and share it directly with your friends.

Of course, there’s a whole lot more. You can use netvibes to:

  • Check your email
  • Search the web
  • Search for podcasts and videos – and play with them
  • Read feeds from your favorite blogs and news sites
  • Stay connected with your friends on MySpace
  • Get organized

Feel free to add more modules, feeds, and tabs, move them around, or go to Settings to change your language or design theme—this is your own netvibes page, so have fun with your creation. (If you want to save your netvibes page, don’t forget to Sign In at the upper-right of your screen.)

And if you’re ever in doubt, the ‘Getting started’ button in the side bar’s quick links (click Add content on the top left of your page).
