Today's Tech Project became iGoogle after seeing a demonstration on the newest MRIS or MLS Website features this morning. That was fascinating to see the new interactive features plus to learn about the latest version of Settlement Express which is a Closing Estimator. But what also caught my attention is that the Instructor used iGoogle. Of course, anything Google or Twitter catches my attention, so I had to explore it. It can be set up as your home page plus customized with a graphic that personalizes it. I wanted a Golden Retriever Theme and I found some great ones. This page has news channels, the tv guide, maps, movie and music information, youtube videos of the day, and whatever you select as your main interests in the very first selection window or later when you want to add or change gadgets. It even has weather and time. Everything you need to know at a glance is on iGoogle. I try to tackle a Tech Project a day along with regular Real Estate Projects, so this was a great discovery. You find it on the www.google.com page in the top right corner. Just click iGoogle and then customize. While there, you may want to check into Google Voice and Google Wave!
I have not decided whether I want it as the home page, but it's a very strong possibility. I may have to explore more and find out if I can have blog feeds but that's looking good . I just found Twitter and Facebook feeds. Now that's cool! Tweetdeck rocks with the LinkedIn capability, but a Home Page with everything??? That's Golden Tech Results!
