Getting organized : customised home pages and Google tools

The i-Google is very easy to customise. I can move the gadgets around by clicking on them then hold and drag them to where I want. There are lots of useful gadgets such as the weather gadget, date & time gadget that allows you to search times of certain locations in the world, the Top news gadget, Currency converter gadget, Best place to go gadget, and Motormouth petrol PriceTracker.

There are lots of beautiful themes for you to select. You can have your own pets moving around your homepage (you can pick a pet by clicking on the "add it now" button belonging to a certain pet gadget). I chose two turtles and they are cute.

I-Google is a very handy tool where you can group different social networks together and therefore we can find sites easily, check out updated information such as subscribed RSS feeds, or people followed on Twitter, or a blog, etc. You can also check email and play with your pets all at once from the one screen.

Here is a screen shot of my I-Google homepage to share with everyone.
