I don’t know how many people are still using Netvibes, but I’ve always been interested in trying out the service. And it turns out that maybe I’ll be able to do it this week, when the company will launch a first beta of their iPad optimized website.
Why not a native app? I don’t know, but sure it looks like one hell of a custom webapp.
From the official blog post:
“It’s a web site designed and optimized for this device which will bring you all the features you already love on your computer today, like the smartreader view with list, expanded and mosaic layouts, read/unread status and all your favorite widgets at your fingertips.”
It looks very good, and we’re looking forward to finally try it. We’ll keep you posted about it.
