A scoop over on Mashable France: startpage provider Webwag has acquired Mobease, a widget platform for mobile phones. Launched in 2006, Mobease provides Mobidgets for putting widgets on your phone, and Mobifindit, a search engine that indexes the contents of your mobile handset.
You'll remember that Webwag launched Widgets on Demand last month: this lets you create a widget from content on any page and post it to Webwag. The French site is a rival to Netvibes, Pageflakes, YourMinis and Protopage.
