| Abstract: |
In today’s dynamic and ever-changing web environment, users demand friendlier and more
personalized interactions with web content. One of the latest technologies that attempt to meet
this need is a set of applications that packages several emerging technologies into a single
source termed a “personalized web application”. The “personalized web page” makes use of cutting
edge technologies to build attractive, highly interactive and responsive web environments. To
encompass and capture the abundant web content and user defined information in a single location
the personalized web applications leverages a combination of third party miniature applications
or existing application programming interface (API). This allows the user to customize, modify
and personalize web pages based on individual preferences, characteristics or interests.
This project describes a personalized web application, namely, the Dynamic Personalized Web
Page. It provides a novice user the ability and tools to utilize pre-populated fields, drag and
drop based interactions to request more information, respond to offers, or incorporate
on-the-spot customizations by organizing the information on a page that is personalized and
appealing to each individual. In addition to page personalization, the application offers a
clean persistence layout specific to the individual user or widget management. To accomplish
this, several popular widgets such as RSS Feed, Google Map and YouTube were implemented as
integral parts of the application. This project serves the main objective of learning and
implementing the latest technologies in order to create a useful and popular web application
