A portal is a 'centralized' Website where people can get information from disparate sources. Portals are used a great deal
by corporations to provide their internal staff with a central location (a Website) to access both corporate information such as
contact, customer, billing and ordering information as well as information on products & services and external information such as
specialized news, weather, stock prices, etc. Portals usually let users customize their pages
to access the information they have interest in.

A few of the most popular public portals on the Internet are:
igoogle
webwag
pageflakes
netvibes

 |
| Portals can provide a whole lot more than just information. Corporations use them to provide their
staff with a centralized location for intercommunications, for example on specific projects. Portals can also provide
interfaces for multiple full blown software applications allowing the user to use them together as though they were just one software application.
Of course corporate portals are fully secured from being viewed by the general public. |
