The death of iGoogle today was for me something of a crisis, but I note with some surprise that I seem to be the only one I have any contact with (live or virtual) who gives any appearance of even caring. I have set up Netvibes as suggested by Tom, and MyYahoo, but still don't feel comfortable with either.
It looks like the whole murder of iGoogle was simply an attempt to force me into the Google+ universe. But I don't want to be in Google+. I WANT MY iGOOGLE BACK. I am an old man and have trouble adjusting to change. I don't like it when they re-arrange the shelves at the local market, or change the girl who takes my money at the gas station. I am still waiting for the Rams to come back to Los Angeles and the Lakers to move back to the Forum. And I don't like it now that I have to get used to a whole new internet. And make no mistake about it, the internet looks completely different today. I WANT MY iGOOGLE BACK.
