I was busy browsing with Google when I noticed something new (at least for me) at the upper left corner of its search page — a link to iGoogle.

It can be customized to add widgets like time, calendar, Gmail inbox, my favorite wikipedia, the oh-so-useful currency converter, breaking news, and even an art featured for the day. It’s pretty much like My Yahoo! but since I use Google a lot when searching for information, iGoogle just got me.
