Task 18: iGoogle - I do!

This was an easy task for me because I have had iGoogle set up at home for quite a long time - I have a link to the asx and associated companies with updated daily prices (just so I can be depressed each time I open up my home page). I have also customised it to show time and weather for Brisbane, Vancouver, Boston and Amsterdam, quote of the day, my individual starsign and news headlines. I find this to be a very useful homepage. I have used other homepages such as msn and optusnet but find them to be too cluttered - even when you customise them. I like the simplicity of the layout of iGoogle but agree with some of the other bloggers that it can be a bit basic and would not work for everyone's needs. I did have a look at Pageflakes and Netvibe as suggested but won't bother changing as I am all set up now.
