Commenting on commenting

I've bounced around a few of the other blogs. Some are overwhelmingly advanced, and others are pretty similar to mine, and I guess it'll be interesting to see which ones start out fairly basic and become more fantastical, and which ones will remain similar throughout the exercise. I commented on a few, but really found I had nothing to say. I'll be honest - I rarely read other people's comments on subjects anymore. I've found most start out reasonably enough - "I disagree with the author for this reason," but within about 20 comments it's often descended into sniping and name-calling. Or it's gone off-topic. Or it's me - I just can't be bothered to read a few hundred comments in the hope that some will be interesting or useful, once I've read the initial article. If I'm interested, I'm more likely to check out related articles or websites than other people's comments.

iGoogle - do you?

And here it is, my iGoogle page. I found it quite hard working out what would be useful to me, so it's very much a work in progress. A lot of the things I've added are things I do not visit very often, but it was hard pinpointing things that I refer to more frequently than these. I left on a few things Google suggested, to try them out and see what use I could make of them. Ultimately, I find that most browsers use tabbing, and certainly Chrome and Firefox both allow you to save tabs. I can see that being able to log in to all the things you need at one point without having to use the same computer can be useful, but since I use the same computer at work the whole time, it remains a bit of a moot point.
