Personalize Your Google Home Page

If you're like me, a hopeless Googleholic, you probably have Google's main page set as your browser's home page. A nice, clean and extremely useful page to pop up when you start your browser.

Well, starting today, you can personalize it using a new tool from Google Labs.

The new customizable Google home pages at www.google.com/ig .

You can add a box for your Gmail messages, Google News, Local Weather, Wired News, Movies, Stock Market, Word of the Day, Driving Directions, New York Times, Quote of the Day, Slashdot and BBC News.

Be warned, though, if you do this, your home page will not be so clean and uncluttered as you were used to.
