Blog

I've had my home page set to iGoogle for several years now, on all of my home computers. (Prior to that, I was using my.yahoo.com.) I just found out that it's set to be discontinued. I don't really understand why they'd be discontinuing something that can't be costing them much money, and that entices people to have a nice big Google search bar on their home page. It's not scheduled to disappear until late next year, but I decided to switch over to something else now anyway. The only reasonable alternative I could fine was Netvibes. If you go to their home page right now, they're pushing their corporate dashboard stuff, but you can still sign up for a free account and use it like iGoogle. It's pretty nice, though the page is slower to load than my iGoogle page is.
