Am I missing something? Would it be embarrasingly unfashionable to say that my first impression of Central is that it’s ‘much ado about nothing’? An interactive window with links to content from different data sources. That’s just a web browser isn’t it? From my browser I can check out the weather, the latest Flash news, the movies playing at my local cinema. As a developer I don’t have to conform to any specific API. The only difference I can see is that the web offers me 100′s of thousands of data sources where Central offers “very few” to say the least.

As a web user and developer what does Central offer me that I don’t already have?

Remember the first rule of the web portal; you can be all things to some people, and something for all people, but you can’t be all things for all people.
