All your base are belong to Google
Maybe this is one of those things that, in my density, I’ve only just noticed; or maybe this is yet another new feature released just this afternoon with which Google means to conquer the world.
It’s like My Yahoo!, only Google. Only better. It supports RSS feeds in a simpler manner than Yahoo! I added feeds for all of our sods brood blogs, dragged and dropped them into the left column so that they look nice and neat, and now I’ve got easy access to all my friends’ postings. In the middle column I have fun stuff like “Quote of the Day.” In the right column I placed news feeds for all the major news sources, with my gmail account at the top.

It took me a few moments to realize that you have to click on “personalize” to have any options. As far as I can tell, the one thing this page does not have is a calendar and I have really come to depend on my Yahoo calendar. I suppose I could add a link to my calendar in the add content area…

There’s a “Bookmarks” field where you can add links to the Google homepage.
I’ve been using My Yahoo for several years, but I think the Google homepage is cleaner-looking and easier to organize. Also, I could never get the RSS feeds to work well on my Yahoo homepage.
