Google’s personalized home-page comes with tabs now to accomodate more content.
If you have not made Google your home page, and have not personalized it, do it today. With its no-frills interface, Google beats any other website as the home page of your browser — other than “about:blank”. Now with its personalized feature, it has become even better.
With the personalized Google page, you can customize the Google page to tell you about your new emails, the weather, the movies in your area, your chosen RSS feeds, and you can choose from hundreds of other tools. Thus you can have the same bookmarks, and favorite links, no matter where you access the internet. Also, with the introduction of tabs, it has become possible to accomodate even more content on the page.
Here’s is how my personalized Google page looks like:
And, here is how to get your own personalized Google page:
On your classic google.com page, click “Personalized Home”, and you are brought to the default Personalized home. Try moving the modules around with your mouse. Delete the ones you don’t want, and add the ones you do. But before doing any serious customization, click on “Sign In”. If you have a gmail account, use it to sign in. If not, click on “Create an account”, and you can still be logged in in minutes.
To add stuff to your personalized Google page, click on “Add stuff »”, and choose from a whole lot of tools and options — games, to-do lists, calendar modules, quotes, jokes, you name it. You can use the search button to look for stuff, and also “Add by URL”. The “Add by URL” option lets you add stuff like custom RSS Feeds – from news sites, blogs, blog aggregators, newsgroups, and the like.
