I don't think there were any Google-only modules that I was too attached to so making the switch shouldn't be a problem. Right now my favorite feature with Netvibes is that I can add multiple copies of the same module...such as the GMail module. That way I can have it check multiple email accounts for new mail. Very nice! I’ve decided to make the switch to Netvibes so I will see how it goes.

Unless they're hiding it you can't see more than the headlines of any feed item, Netvibes launches a nice 2 pane window to read/preview feed content. I use Netvibes and would use Pageflakes and Microsoft live (and I hate saying that) before I would use Google Personalised.

I assumed it was like every other Myspace module that I had seen which requires people to have an account. Thanks for the clarification Franck.

It'll allow you to keep track of your friends or favorite music groups and listen to their songs with the embeded music player. There's also a nice feature we put in place which allows you to drag&drop a comment from a myspace account to create automatically a new module with this new user...
