InfoSpace Portal


Infospace decided to create a new product, a white label homepage for their partners. After convincing the business owners that a user customizable solution instead of a static portal would be the way to go, I lead the design of the interaction framework, the individual modules, and art directed the visual design.

The home page with the default modules. These can be customized by the user.
The user can drag and drop the modules to their preferred location on the page.
Users can select from a variety of predefined modules or add their own rss-feeds to the portal page as well as create new portal pages.
Keep it simple - the sign up screen requires the users email, the password and a password confirmation.
