New Google Feature!
 
You saw it here first.

Google is now offering a brand new homepage with GMail & News integration and personalised links - you can alter the content to whatever suits you.

http://www.google.com/ig

UK version here:
http://www.google.co.uk/ig *

* Note that you will not be able to use the GMail integration on the UK site.

It also includes cutting edge Google features such as My Search History.

Don't bet on it !!

It's not letting me save my personalisation and continually gives a security error. Also the UK one still says Zipcode and not Postcode.

Well I can sign into and out of my gmail account, but everytime I try and save personalisations on this new offering it fubars, either giving page not found or continual security redirect errors.

So as far as I am concerned it's another lame duck, released before it's time and with insufficient testing or resources.

You're probably using the .co.uk version?

IIRC, I used something similar to the weather script years ago, it contained some sort of spyware, just seems like something that was doing the rounds a couple of years ago :shrug: don't know if this is the same ??

Of course, I could be wrong....again ;)
