Welcome to the New Social Desktop: Onefeed

If your browser new tab page is still “about:blank,” OneFeed can transform it into something a bit more useful: a good-looking dashboard full of stories from your favorite websites, email notifications, updates from your Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram feeds, and more.

OneFeed supports Google (Gmail, Google Drive), Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Dropbox, and more. You can hook it into as many or as few as you want to use, and add them to your dashboard so you can browse files, updates, email, or other notifications on any new tab page. Whether you want to see what your friends are posting to Instagram, want to read your Facebook news feed without opening Facebook in a tab, or you just want to see what the top stories are at your favorite blogs (including this one), OneFeed displays them for you in a tiled layout that’s easy to navigate.

Say hello to the future of the desktop; the new-tab-page which doubles as your dashboard to easily navigate the web. We believe that the time of the old desktop has come and passed, and as only expected, we are offering something new to replace it.

Onefeed is here to make your life easier by concentrating everything you need in one place. Websites, e-mails, and documents are a click away, organized to your liking. Social networks and their activities are with you on “the-go”, while you are out browsing the rest of the web. News is delivered to your frontdoor from all corners of the internet, based on nothing else but your interests. You are now in complete charge of your surfing experience.

Onefeed has over 60,000 users using its beta version, and we are very excited to announce that we have a launch date this week.

You can also tell OneFeed to notify you when you get new Gmail messages or Facebook notifications and there’s a persistent search bar across the top of each new tab that will search your documents, any connected cloud services you have (Dropbox and Google Drive, for example), your contacts, and more.

Even if you don’t want to connect it to any of your services, you can still let the extension collect your most recently visited sites and bookmarks, and display those on each new tab page. You can even drag and drop them into folders, add new bookmarks or pinned sites in a flash, and tab left and right to use OneFeed’s built-in news reader to stay on top of new stories from your favorite sites (or the ones they suggest).
