Google Personalized
RexWorld sent me a link to Google's new personalized page that they have launched within the Google Labs section of their site. Damn, it's cool.
From a feature standpoint, it isn't really much different from something like My Yahoo! (which I have never found any use for). However, from the technology side, it is just cool (like so many Google apps). Everything on the page is draggable so that customization of the layout is a snap.
It is a great example of the whole AJAX approach (thanks for creating more buzzwords, Jesse James Garrett) where JavaScript powers the front end.
Check it out if you haven't already:
