    Note to self(before someone else points it out): fix overhanging sidebar.

    interesting and innovative, but it seems it can only keep track on the contents inside a fixed-position area, which could be bad experience for the users. Another concern is that the widgets are used to better transform/present the data, not just a simple screenshot-like copy&paste.

    Good idea, poor execution. A few tests showed truncated pages and not really good page organization

    Thank you for the comments.
    We definitely support widgets in their normal way but the truth is that for 25 billion pages, you can only find 8000 widgets, and the remainder of the web pages don't all have RSS feeds.
    So WOD is one additional solution until all relevant pages propose widgets...

    Not convinced by how original this is - back at Apple's launch demo of Leopard I remember a new feature of the Dashboard where users could create widgets really easily. One of these widgets was the ability to clip part of a webpage and update it periodically. Can't find the demo clip, but there's a description here (http://www.apple.com/macosx/leopard/dashboard.html).

    Granted, adding the idea to a startpage is cool, but the concept isn't that original, and doesn't seem to be as well executed.

    haha, this is quite clever. It is not screen-scraping as I first thought. The code simply frames the selected portion of the page in an [iframe]. its a novel idea but it's not exactly suited to content that might change size.
