eb applications today do a number of things. A Web site could be a banking site, a content management system, or a news center. In spite of this diversity, it almost always makes sense to break a Web page into smaller, reusable widgets that you can share in any other part of the site or even across sites.
This thinking has lead to reusable widgets such as the header and footer in your system, a huge third-party control vendor market, an emergence of portal Web sites such as my.yahoo.com or my.msn.com with functional widgets, and the creation of products such as Plumtree and SharePoint Portal Server 2003.
