Thing 4

I already have an iGoogle custom home page, so I looked at gadgets to add to it. I already have weather, day + date, BBC news (for a different perspective), daily quote from the Dalai Lama (for inspiration), and the Daily Puppy picture because they're so cute. I added an interactive calendar that I can fill with birthdays and important school events.
I think that I would want to have a separate 'professional' custom home page that would not be so personal. I am conscious of keeping a wall between my personal and professional lives (just ask that superintendent who went on Facebook to tell about his first day at work!) But I can imagine all sorts of educational and/or library gadgets, such as a daily posting from the Library of Congress. Well, I just added "Children's Book of the Day" to see what that turns out to be.
