Hopefully I'm not the only one that uses it. But for those that do. Who likes the new IGoogle changes that were implemented/forcibly pushed out yesterday?
Google's iGoogle Goes From Portal To Platform -- Google -- InformationWeek
Personally, I can't stand them. I feel like google really screwed the pooch on this one. Talk about a waste of space and clutter. I did find a work around for it though. You just change your location to Ireland under settings and it will revert you back to the old Igoogle. But if Google forces this change to everyone, I'm done with it. I'll use something else. They don't even offer a way to revert back to the way it use to be.
Just another example of a company becoming too powerful. They stop caring about it's user and do whatever the HECK it wants. Granted not everyone is going to like something, but this is just absolutely horrendous. It looks terrible on my macbook even though it's WS. Is anyone else as infuriated as I am?
