May 5th, 2008Best Top 10 iGoogle Gadgets
I setup the iGoogle page as my Firefox homepage so it’s the first thing I see when I load Firefox. I use iGoogle on a daily basis and find it extremely useful and time saving as it displays all the vital information I need on one page. iGoogle is especially interesting if you use the various Google services such as Gmail, Calendar, RSS feeds etc… You can customize tons of different “gadgets” into your page to create your very own “homepage”. If you do not like iGoogle but would like to use a customizable homepage, then visit NetVibes.
