Google home pages to be more stylish

People can use the service to customize iGoogle homepages with features such as pictures, online "blog" journal postings, YouTube videos, and "Google Gram" animated greeting cards.


SAN FRANCISCO: Google on Tuesday will add a bit of style to home pages customized by users of its globally popular Internet search engine.

The Mountain View, California-based firm is adorning personalized homepages with an "iGoogle" logo and rolling out "Gadget Maker" tools for people to easily tailor pages with pictures, videos or musings.

"Gadget Maker allows users to bring their favorite offline information online and share with their friends and family, or the whole world," Google said.

"Anyone who can upload a photo or write an e-mail can use one of Gadget Maker's seven modules to create a personalized gadget without knowing how to write code."

People can use the service to customize iGoogle homepages with features such as pictures, online "blog" journal postings, YouTube videos, and "Google Gram" animated greeting cards.
