If you have not yet used iGoogle, Google's customizable homepage, you're missing out. It's been around for a few years now, but continues to be improved.
iGoogle is a really easy way to have important information that you are interested in all in one place. There are many different gadgets to choose from. You can have local weather, news sources, blog readers, daily comics or games all on one page.
But the really cool thing that has happened lately with iGoogle is that a bunch of new themes have been developed, thanks to the Google Photography Prize. In collaboration with the Saatchi Gallery London, Google invited students from around the world to enter their photographs. Of the photos submitted, 36 series were turned into themes that anyone can set on their homepage! Below you will see a snapshot of the amazing photography.
If only iGoogle was an added feature to Google Apps for education, we could use it as part of our LutherSem account. Unfortunately, at least for now, you'll need a separate Google account to use iGoogle.
