what is schmedley?

YOUR personal web space.

schmedley is a modern-day portal that combines

What began as just a startpage with widgets has morphed into a personalized launch pad, where every tool you need to communicate, catch up with your interests, share digital content and express yourself online is organized into one convenient place – all your email accounts, social networks, instant messaging, applications and more – accessible from any computer, anywhere in the world.

And because you can create multiple “desktops”, each one can have a unique and different purpose. Use one for catching up with friends by loading up schmidgets for Facebook and Twitter along with a few email accounts. Use another for news items – RSS feeds, current weather forecast, and NASDAQ stock market data for example. And maybe another for games and entertainment. schmedley has lots of schmidgets (widgets) to enhance your daily, personal productivity, and we will always be adding more.

Then there’s the “other side” of schmedley – the ability to create and publish personal web pages. Our goal when creating these tools was to make the user experience as easy as possible – and – to make it virtually impossible to create an “ugly” page. We’ve started with tools for adding Page Titles, Text Areas, and Personal Photos – and tools for Video, Music and Visitor Comments are coming soon. There’s no giant banner ads across the top of the screen or lots of navigation that YOUR visitors don’t need to see. We decided that to do this better than some other website(s), we would need to have a noticeably different and elegant user experience, and an end result that was all about YOUR content – NOT the links and ads. In the future we plan to offer templates (for building photo galleries, blogs, resumes, etc.) that will make custom page creation even easier. So, all you have to do is provide the content.

schmedley – whatever you want it to be.
