Technology is disclosed for accessing multiple network resources through a single portal. A Portal Bridge directs requests from the portal to multiple network resources and channels responses from the network resources to the portal. The Portal Bridge receives a request from a portal that calls for a response from a targeted network resource. The Portal Bridge forwards a request to the targeted network resource to obtain the response sought by the portal's request. The Portal Bridge receives a response to the request from the targeted network resource. The Portal Bridge processes the response and forwards the processed response to the portal.
