I kinda came up with the idea of NetVibes sometime around when they launched (so I guess they thought of it first:-)

They've made alot of headway in a short time with some very nice widgets.

I happened back upon them because there was a link on Social Innovation Conversations to netvibes where they have their own netvibes page. It's populated with SI's widget(s) and a number of other widgets - most populated with terms that are germane to SI's causes.

Very cool.
