Google is launching the kind of personalized integration tool that many thought they’d never do. At first it was thought to be called iGoogle, but the name is uncertain at this point.

(thanks to a commentor on my site, who points to this!)

I don’t think I’m ready to change back – thank god for labs, and feedback loops!!
