Personalised homepages...why not?
Here's mine - sort of, the little version anyway. Another Google feature that I never looked at because it's way at the top-right of the Google homepage!
What do I think? Yes, it's fun. Yes, it's handy. Yes, it could perhaps be useful...But those facts alone are not enough for me to actively use and engage with it.
To be worth sparing some minutes from a frantic lifestyle, an application has to be more than interesting, handy or even fun - it has to be directly relevant to what I do, what I know (or want to know) and how I live.
Maybe the same applies to most information agencies...
