More Things on a Stick, Thing 28

Thing 28 was Customized Homepages. I tried using Netvibes, first, because it reminded me of Twitter for some reason. Don't ask me why; it just did. I had trouble using it. For some reason, Netvibes would not upload my Facebook account and my email account, so I decided against using it.

Instead, I tried Schmedley. I tried it, because it reminded me of using a Mac. I like using Macs, so I thought why not? My Facebook page actually uploaded to Schmedley! It took a while for my hotmail account to upload but it eventually did. It was, also, extremely to navigate as well, but it even took my Twitter account forever to upload.

Overall, I didn't really care for hte Customized Homepages, and I think that was because the two that I tried either took really, really long to upload my information or just didn't want to believe some of my accounts existed. I do think that if you could get things to work, it would be nice to have all of your accounts in place. But I had a bad experience with the Customized Homepages.

See you for Thing 29!
