Schmedley start page, nothing new here
Start pages are great to gather the information you check out frequently, and take a quick look at them in one convenient location. There are many Ajax start pages on the market including Netvibes, Google Personalized home page, Yourminis, and Pageflakes that all seem to do the job. So what makes Schmedley different? Nothing really.
Its pretty, ajaxy, and just another player in this ever expanding market. But there is one cool feature that sits at the bottom of the screen. That OSX style dock that adds schmidgets, as they are called, to your screen. Schmedley's quicklinks at the top allow users to add stocks to watch, search for images, check out movie times, and subscribe to feeds. As far as organization goes, there is nothing new here, the other start sites on the market beat this one out. It does seem cluttered, and not the first thing I want to look at in the morning, but it was worth a shot. It might need a bit more work in order to compete with the market leaders.
