If you don't use iGoogle, but want to personalize your homepage check out Poodwaddle, which allows you to create your own home page with a search engine, dictionary, thesaurus, encyclopedia, maps, calculator and games.

My favorite element in the Poodwaddle universe is its World Clock, which is a running tab of census type statistics around the world. You'll find an ever-growing list of world population numbers, population growth, disease statistics, internet access points, computers produced and other pertinent data.
