Netvibes and sites.google….
I’m psyched about Netvibes’ “public page” – which allows one to set up a publicly available collection of RSS feeds, images, widgets, tabs, etc… It’s like a portal and RSS aggregator that can be shared with the world. If only it were possible to co-create the public page with a group….

Then, there’s Googles “sites” – which is basically Google’s foray into wiki-dom. And what a fine foray it is. I find it better and easier to use and with better features than pbwiki, zoho, and loads of others. There is also the added advantage of single sign-on with Gmail, integration with Google Docs, Calendar, widgets, etc etc… If only the embedded spreadsheets and docs were read AND write….
Anyway, the two of these = some serious possibilities for web 2.4.2… I could see some serious community-building and cross-cultural collaborative projects come out of these. They really do need an easier way to incorporate easy synchronous live activity such as chat, though… Perhaps a DimDim widget?
