Personalized Homepage---like iGoogle

You know how your smart phone has all of your "stuff" on one screen or multiple screens so you have easy access?  I have apps for Pinterest, WalMart, blogs I follow, etc. all in one convenient location--my phone!  Wouldn't it make since for your computer to do the same thing?  You guessed it.....it does.

These are personalized homepages.  Probably the most common is iGoogle, but there are Netvibes, Pageflakes, Backstitch and ighome that also provide this service.  I am a Google girl, so I use iGoogle, but iGoogle is coming to an end in November.  So, I have been searching for a new service for my homepage.  I decided on ighome.com   It seemed the most user friendly and had the best gadgets.  Don't let me lose you just because I used the word "gadgets"....this really is easy.

Here is a screen shot of my homepage; it is what comes up each time I open the Internet.  You  will notice several boxes.  Each box is a gadget.  One gadget is the local weather, one is a clock, one is a blog I follow.  There are gadgets for Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.  There are gadgets for sport news, comics, shopping and politics.  (Read below for video tutorial)

This video is a tutorial on how to set up your personalized homepage using ighome.com.  The video is 12 minutes long, but it tells you everything you need to know to set up this homepage.
