User Personlization Features in a Visualforce based HOME page

Has anyone worked in developing a typical Web Portal kind HOME page within SFDC?

 

We are trying to figure out best way to design this solution which should show multiple subsections within home page

1. One widget for Chatter feed

2. another widget for my alerts

3. one subsection for showing document links pertaining to User role in org

 

This is not hard coded VF but each application user should be able to personalize this page as per his/her preferences, not limited to below

 

1. Choosing which widget to add in their HOME page view

2. Choosing placement of Widget on HOME page (top left, bottom right)

3. Skins and Themes of HOME page

 

If anyone has done something similar and can share relevant experience as to how they handled it, any roadblock faced etc, it will be greatly helpful.

 

Thanks

Satgur

Thanks Ed for pointing to this PoC.

 

Looks quite close to what we are dealing with.

 

May need to refer codebase of iSalesforce and see how it can be extended to a Chatter widget, my documents.

 

Appreciate your help.
