Posted by Richard Ziade on April 11, 2006, 08:13AMFeedback Loop 2.0
You have got to love the twisted little feedback loop that is the Web these days. Last week, I whined like a child that Netvibes' front-end was a bit too cramped. Yesterday, I posted about a neat little tool called Stylish that allowed you to hack at any sites CSS with Firefox.
This morning, I open up Firefox to find that the Netvibes team actually made the changes. It's an oh-so-subtle change, but man it makes a difference. Very cool.
Imagine watching a TV show and phoning into the network and telling them they need to shift their camera angles; or emailing your favorite magazine to tell them that their article layout in their print edition needs to change. Only on the web.

Posted by: alessandro j random at April 11, 2006 9:32 AMIt looks like they removed the change. But you can still see it on preview.netvibes.com.
Posted by: Rich Ziade at April 11, 2006 9:33 AMI don't see the extra spacing here.
