New Google Feature
Google now has a feature that allows a person to customize their Google home page (much similar to Yahoo). You can get weather, movies, news. One thing I did notice absent from this is they don't have scores. I suggested that they include MLS, NBA, NHL, MLB, English Premier League, Italian Serie A, Spanish Primera. If you're interested in this go to http://labs.google.com and I would also suggest you give them feedback to add scores, especially MLS. You can email them at: labs+fusionph [at] google.com

Sweet! I love google.

Have any of you ever been to 600673.com? Maybe I'm the only computer geek that finds it amusing.

Say goodbye to Mapquest. Google maps ROCKS! Go play around--it has some awesome features. I can't recommend it highly enough. (Can you say satellite baby?)

Edit: You may repay my telling you about this with lots o' rep.

Edit II: The Link

Okay, now go to the top and type "Iggys" or "Pizza Hut" or something like that, and it'll find it within the map or as close as possible to the current screen...and on the upper right, click "satellite"

It's a map and a phone book rolled into one... With Google intelligence thrown into the mix, you can't lose. :D You can also type general stuff like "restaurants"
