What is a Webmix?
A Webmix is a collection of Tiles for a specific subject.

A Symbaloo Webmix is a customizable grid of tiles used in the Symbaloo platform to organize and access online resources, links, and tools in one convenient location. It’s a visually intuitive way to manage bookmarks and shortcuts to websites, documents, or services you frequently use.


Key Features of a Webmix

Grid Layout:

The Webmix is arranged as a grid where each tile represents a link to a website, app, document, or other resources.

Tiles can be customized with different colors, icons, or images for easy identification.

Customizable:

Users can add, edit, move, or delete tiles to tailor the Webmix to their needs.

Create multiple webmixes to organize resources by categories such as work, education, entertainment, or hobbies.

Accessible Anywhere:

Webmixes are stored in the cloud, making them accessible from any device with an internet connection.

Useful for syncing resources across multiple devices.

Widgets:

In addition to simple links, Symbaloo offers widgets for tasks like displaying RSS feeds, embedding videos, or showing live weather updates.

Sharing:

Webmixes can be shared publicly or privately with others, making them useful for collaboration, teaching, or sharing curated resources.

Search Bar:

Each Webmix includes a search bar that integrates with your preferred search engine for easy navigation.
