iGoogle Experience

Besides dealing with the daily household stuff, a modern homemaker should also keep herself acknowledged with the technical step as far as possible. Just wandering whether you have tried the iGoogle page creation facility.

What is iGoogle anyway?

Google offers the ability to create a personalized iGoogle page that gives you at-a-glance access to key information from Google and across the web. On this self-designed page, you can choose and organize content such as:

  • Your latest Gmail messages
  • Headlines from Google News and other top news sources
  • Weather forecasts, stock quotes, and movie showtimes
  • Bookmarks for quick access to your favorite sites from any computer
  • Your own section with content you find from across the web

Besides the above things that you can do with your own iGoogle page, you can also choose a theme for each of the tab (category) created. Some of the themes are very lovely – The background of each theme will change from time to time. I have provided the screen shots of my iGoogle as follow:

Fig 1: 'Home' tab theme.

Fig 2: 'News' tab theme.

I personally find it quite useful. You may want to visit the following page to find out how to personalize your own iGoogle:
