Very smooth and looks very clean, the thing is…
There’s a big push towards this type of interface, site fluidness and what seems to be flexibility; but do people actually use these “widgets”.
I’ve used the google homepage and live.com, my biggest problem was if you wanted to have a lot of content at your fingers tips, the pages always took a long time to load e.g. as each of the rss feeds are accessed. This becomes very annoying in terms of usability as if you wanted to use the home page as a desktop/first browser page, which its design and idea suggests then it needs to be more responsive.
Is the use of Ajax best used to aid the user, i.e. for filling forms, general browsing, search requests, without page refreshes?
Are these widgets here just because they can be, not because they need to be?
Just ranting…

hey guys, great job on mooglets beta, very impressive site… i’m an asp.net 2.0 developer that has been using web parts/atlas to try and do this behavior, but it’s lacking in the sense that you can’t drag and drop anywhere, only within preset zones. a couple questions…
thanks for your hard work, justin

I’m duly impressed… though quite the shame that I haven’t been able to save the page state successfully (in any browser).
Impatient as I am, I started working on a temporary fix using Greasemonkey — are there any plans to add a forum page for mooglet discussion?

… ah, one already exists. I was temporarily thrown by everybody talking about moo.fx there — my apologies.

What is “Mint”? I’ve never heard of it before. Look forward to seeing more widgets available, keep it up!
