Protopage Reboots

protopage-v2

Pro­topage just seems to keep get­ting bet­ter and bet­ter. Lately, they updated to ver­sion 2.0. That’s “2.0″ as in “Web 2.0″—HA! *snicker* OK. I admit, it’s still too early on the week for such fool­ish word­ings but all is fair in the land of web tech­nol­ogy and blogging.

Mean­while, Pro­topage jam-packed their release with a slew of new fea­tures. Some new fea­tures that stood out for me were:

  • abil­ity to add new pages
  • rounded cor­ners on panels
  • new color schemes for panels
  • and rich-text editing

There are plenty more that I still have to try out. So, if you missed my write-up on Pro­topage last Sep­tem­ber and still haven’t tried it out—it’s not too late to do so. By the way, did I men­tion that it’s FREE?!

Do you need another rea­son to jump in and have a look at it? If so, then lets just say that the BBC cov­ered Pro­topage. Any­ways, what’s a bet­ter rea­son than to just help you get orga­nized in life.

Keep it simple—and FREE!

Coolest Homepage Ever by Protopage

Protopage - Ajaxified start pages

So what can be the coolest page you have ever been to on the net? Well, its sim­ple. The one that you just cre­ated and cus­tomized. How you may ask? Why not find out over at Pro­topage.

But what exactly is it?

Pro­topage makes it eas­ier for you to get to your favorite web sites.

Cre­ate a page, put your links and sticky notes on it, and save it as your new browser start page.

With my expe­ri­ence, in the quick 10 min­utes of using it, its more for those that need to eas­ily trans­port their sticky notes from home to work and vice-versa. Its an alter­na­tive for those of us who don’t have time to make a per­sonal home­page where to-do-lists, new web links and lotto num­bers might reside. A cool thing about it is—its AJAX­i­bil­ity (just made it up, don’t wear it out).

You can change the lay­out of your notes; the color of your background/foreground; the image/wallpaper of your home­page; and many more. All of this in real-time. By the way, did I men­tion that its FREE!

The only thing that might be of a “fine-print” mate­r­ial would be this part (below their reg­is­tra­tion form):

We ask for your email address so that we can send your pass­word to you if you for­get it, and to send you occa­sional news about Pro­topage. We respect your pri­vacy. You can opt out of the Pro­topage news emails at any time.

Oth­er­wise, go give it a try. I’m pretty sure it’ll be of good use for those always on-the-go. As well as those who are always in need of a ser­vice that helps them man­age this clutter-verb we call “web-surfing.”
