"I had four tabs stuffed with content on my personalized homepage. Dozens of RSS feeds, half a dozen bookmark gadgets, friends blogs, all my web presences, dozens of other gadgets. I spent weeks tailoring [it] so it was just right for my very intensive

Internet needs," a user wrote on a Google discussion group. "Now it's all gone."

That guy needs to get a life.

What bothers me is that Google keeps changing the GUI slightly every few weeks...today all my content now has boxes around it. Drives me nuts, once I get used to something they change another thing.

Do you find yourself using it more than my.yahoo? I haven't used my.yahoo in weeks, after using it for years. While the Google interface seems a bit slower, I like the look and feel of it better... Especially the integration with gmail

I never used my yahoo...I started using personal google because of Gmail.

That and from what I have seen, Google allows more customization, with yahoo it is mostly yahoo content.

Yawn. I don't use this "personalized" crap. Give me plain and simple fast-loading pages that won't kill my 850MHz laptop. ;)
