Something I just discovered. Seems awfully like what I did try out with Yahoo a long time ago (5 years+, so some of these might not apply anymore).

I didn’t like what Yahoo! had. It was not easy to customize. I had to go through many page loads to make some changes, and took me at least half an hour to make it what I wanted it to be like.

Now, with Google’s personalized home, you can change things by clicking the “Add Content” button on the top left corner, add new content, and organize them by dragging them around. You can change the options in the same page by clicking edit, make your changes, then go out of edit mode. No/minimal loading, and very easy and fast. And, I think it looks cleaner than Yahoo’s page.

Well, I think it is worth a try, and I’ll be using it for a while.
