Popfly from Microsoft
Microsoft Popfly is a very Web 2.0-style product/service that aims to make it easier for its users to express themselves in a fun way.

What Popfly allows you to-do is build applications, web pages, gadgets, mashups and then share them with the Popfly Space online community.

Everyone loves their own space and Popfly allows you to have your space and also gives you the online visual tools for building mashups and web pages…this is Web 2.0 at its best.

You will also get your design work rated and commented on by others in the community and you can do the same with other peoples work. The really cool feature I like is where you are able to remix creations from other Popfly users…that is so cool.

Features of Popfly Mashup Creator Include:

  • Visually design your Web page without writing code; this part has the same technology as Microsoft Office Live Web Designer
  • Fully Customizable HTML: if you’re an advanced user you have the option of fully controlling the rendered HTML
  • Integrated text and video tutorials
  • The Design Surface enables you to drag and drop blocks and connect them together to build your application
  • Blocks enable Popfly users to get their photos from Live Spaces or Flickr and visually display them like a slideshow

    Why not submit the Web 2.0 Application to http://www.Listio.com and let the public review and comment on it. I would really like to know more!
