fowa2007 – Netvibes exclusive announcement

Posted on | February 21, 2007 | No Comments

Tariq Krim from Netvibes just announced the release of an open source javascript runtime (Universal Widget API, UWA) including the Netvibes UI-library. no details on their blog yet, but this should kick off an avalanche of additional Netvibes-module, further strengthening Netvibes’ lead in the market (click for an Alexa traffic-comparison of Netvibes, Pageflakes etc.). TechCrunch has far more details than Tariq just disclosed in his 5minute presentation…basically the API should ensure that widgets work cross-platform, including Vista, Mac OS Dashboard and Google for now, with support of Yahoo! Widgets following later. besides, Krim announced the upcoming support of OpenID, which probably makes open, decentralized authentication the hottest topic of this years fowa.
