Google Homepage–Got Yours Yet?

ME Liz Strauss wrote this at 3:19 pm

Here’s what Google says:

The personalized homepage was created to bring together the stuff that interests you from across the web. From an engineering perspective, this became an opportunity to create a framework for all types of content and information. Supporting RSS and Atom feeds was one step in that direction, and today we’re excited to start supporting richer web apps as well. With the Google Homepage API, developers can now create modules for the personalized homepage. It’s designed to be flexible and easy to use, and you don’t need to download anything to create a module. To get the ball rolling, the team’s created a few modules to add to the directory. So check these out and get started creating your own.

Have you got yours yet?

Or are you waiting for the reviews?

You can find all of the links and more about how to build your own Google Homepage at the Google blog.

    Yeah, Susan,
    So am I. The last thing is more “stuff” on my computer that I don’t use. :)

    I’ve been using NetVibes, which is one of a number of customizable homepage/portal solutions. NetVibes is a lot of fun, and has a range of cool plugins that extend its functionality. I use it as a jumping off point when I start my web browsers to places like Adsense, Bloglines, Technorati, Feedburner, etc.

    Hi Gerald,
    Welcome back!
    Sounds like you’ve found your solutions. It sure looks good from the link you left. Want to write up a review on it? So that others might know whether they want to try it?

    Hey Gerard … Thanks for the tip to NetVibes. Looking at both, I think NetVibes is head and shoulders above Google - more easier on the eye and more customisable.

    One to let me readers know about :-)

    Thanks to Gerard for pointing out NetVibes. I agree with Martin’s assessment of its appearance as opposed to Google’s product.

    See what you did, Liz? Elevated our creativity once again.
