start.com

I recently found out about start.com from a channel9.msdn.com video. Quite impressive for only 3 peoples work in the MSN team.

Its a web page that uses AJAX to fetch RSS feeds and MSN searches and display them in DIVs without refreshes or page jumps. The effect provides better usability.

You can pin any of the feeds to your "homepage" to make up a Sharepoint/DotNetNuke like module structure on the page. It works in Firefox too though.

Impressive, I'm off to have a look at the code in those .js files...
