Google Portal
 

First a search engine, then a toolbar for IE, then a search bar in your taskbar, then a pricewatch'esque search (froogle.com), then an email service (gmail.com), now, they have a new, personalizable Portal.

Not to mention that they're the search engine of choice for ICQ, Firefox, so on, and so forth. What will they think of next?

that's pretty cool,not sure if i'll be using it much, but useful

heh, yeah i checked this out on slashdot a day or two ago. i have used it a lot more than i thought i would. i made it my new homepage and i can get search, slashdot, new emails and movie times on the same page. very convenient.

since google is my home page anyway.. might as well...

humm... excite has been my homepage for 7 years now... should i change... naw. I still use google for all my searches tho. I think the coolest new thing they came up with is Google Local. That shit rocks.

i'm still hoping they will do what yahoo did and make customizable bookmarks, for everytime you log in, it keeps a list of your favorite sites no matter what comp you are on.

i was thinking the same thing today, creep. imagine if people could make their own "plug-ins" for this. we could make a good-evil one that displays the latest update or the last 5 reviews or something. it would be awesome.
