Here’s a cool site that’s an online directory of widgets. It’s sorta like Digg, a type of social network where you can submit, rate, and find widgets for your website.
Heck, we might even submit out Beer Widgets and see how it does.
Widgiland is a directory of online widgets. It houses thousands of widgets for web, desktop and mobile platforms. Users can select widgets for their blogs and personal web pages, for forums and email, for feeds, and search and for messaging among other things. Widgets are categorized by type and by platform, for instance iGoogle, Pageflakes, and NetVibes.

May 13th, 2008 — Launched

Alefo was just launched, an Israeli based start page that seems to mimick Netvibes and iGoogle.
I honestly think they got a lot of catching up to do but maybe that’s why it’s called “pre-beta”.
Israeli based Alefo is a news/personal aggregator that is taking on iGoogle and Netvibes. The site allows users to compile their favorite RSS feeds, Widgets and what they dub ‘site shots’ which basically consist of parts of other websites, to paste onto a personal homepage. You can add Site shots, by taking a screenshot of any webpage and selecting the parts you want to see; they open up as moveable small windows on your homepage.
