Whether you use iGoogle, Pageflakes, or My Yahoo!, using a personalized home pages with all your news, gadgets, games, and commuter entertainment is a must have. So you don't see a module with your favorite website's RSS feed? Create your own widget with the help of iGoogle.

Games Tab
My favorite thing is my games on iGoogle play even when I don't have internet access when I go under a tunnel or loose my broadband internet connect. Just start up your iGoogle click on your games tab and play all the way home. There are some really fun games including Who Wants to be a Millionaire, Sudoku, and Tetris.

Sports Tab
You don't have to watch ESPN, just log onto your iGoogle page and get your sports fix. What happened last night in basketball? Get real time sports scores, news, and TV listings in your area. Sports on demand, without the hassle.

If you haven't started your iGoogle page I recommend you try it. It takes minutes to set up and saves you a bunch of time everyday, because you don't have to browse to each of your favorite blogs or game pages. Get it all right on your personalized iGoogle home page.

Valentine's Day For Geeks

2008-02-10T12:11:00.000-08:00

With Valentine's Day coming up on Thursday, I wanted to give all of my fellow geeks and nerds advice. Send a gift to your girlfriend or someone you are dating! Don't listen to them when they say, "Don't worry about sending a gifts." They will be happy you thought of them on Valentine's Day and flowers can go a long way.

The easiest way to send a Valentine's Day gift, especially if you have a long range relationship is to purchase the flowers on the Internet and have a local florist deliver the flowers. But I think I am preaching to the choir on this one. Roses can be a good choice, just make sure you send the right color roses. Red roses are for a romantic gift, white for friends, and black for the gothic girls.
