Netvibes acquired by Dassault Systems

Interesting that Netvibes was acquired, not so much the purchase but the purchaser Dassault Systems – any thoughts?

I use it pretty much as my rss dashboard and review it first thing every morning (I used to use MS Live before they shut it down for the same reason).

I much prefer this format of RSS reader in that each feed is located in the same position on each tab, much more efficient.

Will be interesting to see what comes out of the sale and if this changes the company/product in the long run.

BTW if you want to see what i'm reading via RSS (or suggest some other feeds back) you can download my OPML feed from here http://www.Collins.net.pr/deancollins.opml

Cheeers,
