Just in case anybody in the world hasn’t started using Googles Personalised Home yet.

Do it!

Now.

It will transform your online life (and waste numerous hours into the bargain)

Basically the idea is that it takes RSS feeds (potted info on updates to sites that support it, with links) and displays them all on a single page. You still have your Google search bar in the middel of the page, but also you can see what has been updated on your favorite sites.

There are also widgets which can be added to display weather, record ToDo lists etc.

Given that it pulls data from a lot of sites at the same time, you would be forgiven for thinking it would be slow, but as Google caches the data for your page, the whole thing is as responsive as good ol’ Google always is.

I cannot recommend it strongly enough.
