Thanks Google for helping me find Netvibes (RIP iGoogle)

Thank iGoogle for screwing up your page by adding the tab sidebar. I have signed a petition to return the tabs to the top. Best of all, this has made me change my homepage to something better. It's called NetVibes. Good looking page with many gadgets aka widgets. It's easy to install and setup up. Much prettier than iGoogle too. And the tabs are at the top where they belong. Whoever heard of sticking files in a cabinet and pulling them out from the left hand side? It installed my GMail widget and GMail now opens without that horrible sidebar. You can move stuff around and they have many options to help customize this great portal. And the tabs are at the top where they belong. Yes, this may be a huge favor granted by the Hitleristic sudden strike team at Google. This page loads quickly and is so easy to navigate. BTW, the tabs are at the top. Shucks, it's even easier to read! Did I mention the tabs are at the top where they belong? When Google hands you a lemon you just throw it in the blender with some rum and make a cool refreshing beverage!
