Conrad Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Just discovered this, really cool tool to use as your homepage. I always had this site as my homepage but just switched to igoogle:innocent: It's really good, you can choose from hundreds of applications or links to be added to your homepage. Calenders, news feeds, local weather, sports news, route planners,maps, wikipedia search engine etc etc. Very handy. You can even change your theme too, check it out.

AndrewOW Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 It does look good, and for a moment I thought it was going to run on my old Mac here, but it doesn't I'll have a proper look when I get home, as it may well be worth using Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conrad Posted February 4, 2008 Author Share Posted February 4, 2008 yeh its ace innit, what extras have you got ? i have "einstein quote of the day" , leadership quote of the day,. top stories,. gmail,. all on my homepage, its good !! Quotes of the day? Good call, just added that too. The one I added throws up a new quote eveytime igoogle loads - not just the one a day as expected. Other than that I have: local 5 day weather, BBC sport, Driving Directions, Calender, Date & Time, Wikeipedia search and Google news. All pretty handy - no doubt they'll change as I discover other cool things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
