Here is a new startpage site sent to me by John. It’s still in alpha so expect it to do more in the future.
If you are looking for a high gloss startpage, Schmedley may be what you are looking for. This site is the OS X version of Protopage. Some major functions will need to be added before it can compete with sites that have been around for a year or two. For instance, I couldn’t find a way to make a list of bookmarks.
There are also a couple of embedded advertisements on the right side of the desktop. I couldn’t make them disappear so I covered them with a calendar.
