For the homepage, I chose iGoogle. It was the easiest to customize of the three, and I found it very cool. I really loved that when I clicked 'music' as an interest, it gave me a list of concerts coming to my area. Now when my daughter comes in talking about an awesome concert that's coming, I'll know first! I loved the Youtube widget as well.
The other tool I used was Zamzar. I used it mostly because as I was looking through all the tools, my daughter came in and noticed the Zamzar and mentioned that she used it a lot. So I decided to give it a try. It was easy to use and it worked. I'll probably be using it quite a bit in the near future.
I didn't make an online calender because I already did one for a pervious Thing, but they work very nicely and are very helpful. I'll be using them for use in the classroom now, to let students know when things are due and what tests are coming up.
The To Do lists seemed to be more trouble than they were worth, in my opionion. I could do the same thing with a piece of paper and a pen.
As for reccomending tools to others, I would definitely reccomend both zamzar and iGoogle. They're both very neat tools and are useful as well.
