The NTugo Webtop
November 25th, 2007Nowadays, more and more applications are moving online in the form of “web apps.” You may use Google Docs instead of Microsoft Word, GMail or Yahoo Mail instead of a desktop client, or MyNT instead of FeedReader.
Really, you need a way to organize web apps, and other sites you use frequently, into a central place where you can easily jump to the sites/apps you need. That’s what the NTugo Webtop is for.
Just make the webtop your home page and you have easy access to your web apps, and other sites. Like with MyNT, your webtop has a special URL (http://www.ntugo.com/webtop/you.html) for instant access without logging in.
Currently, features include
- Icons for quick access to any online email service.
- An “IM” icon (which currently leads to Meebo.com).
- Easy access to Google Docs.
- A window showing your most recent Del.icio.us bookmarks, and a search field.
- An “RSS Reader” icon for checking MyNT, or other RSS readers.
- Quick Google searches.
- A menu containing up to 10 frequently-used links.
- Customizable Webtop-Wallpaper.
- “Home Window” with news items (General, Tech, NTugo Network, and Custom).
Try it out. Visit www.ntugo.com/webtop/ for the sample webtop. Log in with your NTugo Account and you can view/customize the page (and get the URL for your personal webtop page).
If you have any ideas for new features, or improvements, leave a comment or send-off an email.
