TECH: iGoogle


iGoogle is a pretty cool, straight forward homepage: you add as much or as little content as you like, move the "modules" around simply by dragging on their headers and dropping them into place.

You can add a module that displays your most recent Gmail emails, calendars, sports scores, games, weather, etc... all in one place. You can even create tabbed pages on your homepage, so that all of your favorite stuff is easily accessible. Simply open your web browser's preferences and add www.igoogle.com as your "HOME" page.

You can also add The Brick Factory blog right to your iGoogle homepage, so you never have to worry about missing out on the good stuff.

HOW TO ADD THE BRICK FACTORY BLOG TO iGOOGLE
  1. Go to iGoogle.com and log-on in the upper-right hand corner. Create an account if you don't already have a Google account.

  2. After you've logged-in, select "Add Stuff" from the upper-right hand corner.

  3. At the top-center of the page, you'll see a "Search Homepage Content" button. Just to the right of it, a tiny link says "ADD BY URL." Click it!

  4. In the "Add by URL" box, type in http://brickfactory.blogspot.com, and voila! New Brick Factory blog postings appear on your homepage.


Pretty damn cool.
