Zude [|http://en.gnomz.com/]
Zude is more of a personal web portal, a place you can add media, web sites, text, and customize the layout. Media can be added simply by dropping them in from another web browser window. The feature site is quite broad, and at the same time, rather complex to use. Lots of right clicks to get menus.
