Thing #16

For my start page I chose iGoogle. This is because I am used to Google for looking up information or mapping for travel. It is my permanent home page. The on line calendar is useful for me when I fill it up with events for that week or month so it will remind me and help me to stay organized. Also the online calendar has alerts which lets the user know if their is bad weather coming. The to-do list is helpful for me because If and when I use a piece of  paper I lose it and never find it. I put my iGoogle page on my iPhone and every time when I look at it the to-do list is there that way I don't forget and stay on time with my plans. I use the Google translation almost every day. It is a very helpful tool for me. Also I use the metric converter because I watch the European news and it helps me to correlate the international standards to American standards, for example, Celsius to Fahrenheit or meters to feet.
