This is my final year project for the completion of my BSc Computer Science course at the University of Birmingham. The site is an information portal for access to all kinds of information (like Google personal pages) and it features extensive customisation options. Users are able to add Googe Gadgets in their tabs and position them whereever they want by dragging and dropping them in the desired location. Each page can be customised independedly from each other. There are numerous themes and layouts to choose from. Users can also have public pages for others to see. Public pages act as personal websites for the users to display their views and work to the Internet.
The project was developed on PHP and Javascript. It handles user authentication with a MySQL database and the pages and customisation settings for each user are stored in XML files on the server. The site uses mootools for dragging and dropping and transparency effects.
The site is live for everyone to try it. You can reach it by clicking here.
