I’ve been waiting patiently today as I’ve been hearing everything talk about the cool, new themes for Gmail that have now been released. It was all the buzz today on twitter but every time I opened Gmail it was just the same old look and feel.

Gmail has this setting where you can tell it to always display images from a certain recipient. That’s a really good feature because it gets annoying to always click on the "Display images below" link.

When I go to Google.com now it goes directly to my iGoogle homepage so I didn’t catch the tools that Google has available for staying on top of Olympics information until I just visited their site from another computer.
They’ve got a nice Olympics widget you can add to your iGoogle page that gives you […]
Cuil.com brings another search player into town to do battle with the existing sites that we’re all already familiar.
It used to be that Google was the king of simple design and layout but Cuil.com makes Google’s homepage look more like a cramped portal site with more items there to distract you from what you’re […]

As you can see from the image above, the navigation and links are now listed in a sidebar on […]
I’m a big fan of Google and one of the products of theirs that I use regularly is the Google Toolbar. I’ve started customizing it more than just accepting the standard set of icons that they recommend, but I’ve run into a bit of a snag.
As you can see from the image above, I’ve […]
Google has added quite a few new themes to their options for their personalized iGoogle homepage. Including a number of great looking ones from some famous artists.
My favorite though is this new sunlight earth calendar. I just like the idea of seeing how the available sunlight changes depending on the time locally and what […]
Dogpile has a little fun promotion going on right now where you can send a little bit of a humorous spoof e-mail to your friends on April Fool’s Day this year.
As you can see from the graphic above there are a number of different messages and jokes you can send with their tool.
Another nice […]
Lots of time and a dedicated connection to the Internet leaves you with many options. To the Internet and Beyond!
