iGoogle

I just discovered this today, well actually, about 4 hours ago and been playing with it since. I lost Google as a homepage and had to restore it and at its option section is where I found iGoogle.

It's kind of hard for me to explain what it is because I'm not really a techie.
Basically it's like you're creating your own customized search engine homepage.

you create multiple tabs and add RSS (gadgets) to each tabs.
For example: I currently have 12 tabs. Home, News, Sports, Music, Indie Films, etc...
In the News tab, I have CNN us, CNN world, Foxnews, BBC, BBC world, NPR, Reuters, etc..
In the Music tab, I added Pearl Jam.com's news in it. there's also a Guitar Chord thingy in there too (it's default).

Actually, a lot of the stuff are default because Google puts it there for you.
But I had to search and add the PJ.com news in their.

BTW, you'll need your own Gmail account to use iGoogle.

Anyways, just wanted to tell those who haven't heard of it yet.

oh yeah if you type "Games" when you're creating new tab, google gives you a free game of Froggers, Pacman, & Hangman. and even NYTimes crossword puzzle.

So Sweet.
