What’s Your Brower Homepage?

By Jon Heizer

Mine is http://www.google.com/ig

This is our good friend Google’s Personalized hompage.

After Signing in with a gmail account you can start to customize your home page. I love this site mostly because it can pull xml/atom/rss feeds from various web sites. I can instantly check the major sites I visit almost every day.

And scrolled down a bit…

You can see how much information is easily accessable everytime I open my browser.

Now, how does it work… Adding content to this page is extremely easy. It is all drag and drop. If you click the “Add Content” Link in the top left you will be presented with this screen.

Here you can add content from all different types of new sources, gmail account inbox, movie tickets, xml feeds, and much more. You can also see to the right that I am currently moving the Bookmarks section. Rearranging the page is as easy as dragging a section to another part of the page.

Overall, I believe this is an amazing page. I only use a few of the built in content features, but with the ability to add custom feeds it is very extendable and convient. So, whats your homepage?
