"Hil Street Web Favorites" Review 2!
Today I want to share my favorite website with you, Google. Google is great! Here is how it works: you type what you are looking for …Ha ha … you didn’t think I would review Google, did you? I know you know all about Google.
I am going to review the site Weslie and I are gaga over … iGoogle. Imagine opening your computer to your perfect website. A website with little windows looking into your favorite pieces of the internet.
HIL’S iGOOGLE FRONT PAGE:
Column 1 (left):
NATI and WFMI stock tickers
Austin weather and my family’s Oklahoma City weather
Search field for Wikipedia and dictionary.com.
Column 2 (Middle):
My del.icio.us bookmarks
CNN.com World top stories
CNN.com US stories
GoogleNews top stories.
Moving on …
Column 3 (left):
Twitter feed
Link to my Google Reader Labs (RSS feed for all my favorite online publications, publications I monitor for Work, and Sam and Julia’s blogs).
Then I have a “fun” tab and a “travel” tab for all the low cost airfare tickers and RSS feeds to interesting travel articles.
And my personalized scene is “city scape” which shows a city with the same weather as my city.
Make your homepage your own by making it iGoogle!

Totally unrelated: We had a substitute Yoga instructor today who looked EXACTLY like Suz! Joe ... do you have some other sister here in Austin?
Check out this Business Week article called Living in a Widgetized World. Then, post your thoughts on my NI blog, Hil!!

I miss you.

I have left the corporate life to move to Austin, teach yoga and commune with nature!
I actually get excited to check my iGoogle first thing every morning (and the Amazon deal of the day.) Maybe I should quit the corporate world to teach yoga in Austin.
We should all quit work and teach Yoga in Austin. It sounds like we already have a full rotation of teachers.
Alright, who knows anything about Yoga?
I know we need incense.
Oh. Oh. And a Whale Songs CD.
