Portal Site?

[Terry D]

I client of mine says his site is a portal site. I did not say anything but thought to myself what the heck is that. Any ideas?

Thanks

I think it means a search engine.

I create portals at work and give them new skins.

They are server driven sites that pull in information from the web or local servers.
Meaning when people log in they have access to their most used and needed data and content from one source and GUI.
Also enabling employers to tailor and deliver content to employee sectors.
Onthe Web, as mentioned the are used by search engines to deliver up to date info and news because the portal is pulling in newsfeeds regularly.Good news for webmasters!

They have some pretty good business uses

Perhpas I'm more confused than before. The customer seem to feel that this might pose a problem in regards to uploading a Flash site.
