Pageflakes, a personalized startpage, launches Public Beta

(PRLEAP.COM) We’re thrilled to announce the release of our Public Beta - www.pageflakes.com

Over the past weeks, we fixed many bugs and glitches, implemented numerous improvements, added support for Firefox and created a number of really nice flakes. Thanks to all users and developers who provided us with their valuable feedback!
