I read recently that someone had attempted to use Google Pages to create a simple website. A pretty neat idea from Google, as some people don’t have the technical skill set to deal with FTP’s, Dreamweaver and other media for creating and loading sites.
I was frustrated a few weeks back with the sheer quantity of websites that seem to be perennially open on my browser both at home and at work. Going through the obvious then:
1a) Different favourites at work and at home and 1b) I hate using favourites
2) Have gotten tired of searching my tags in del.icio.us
3) Tired of typing them into a page every time
4) I can only lock so many sites onto my browser toolbars
So I thought I would use Google Pages to create a type of ‘master’ homepage if you like. This home page would be a simple one page site that is clustered into links of 3 groups 1) my work b) my web2.0 addictions and c) the other me
.
Obviously you need to start with a Google account

To have a look at my Google Page in the the flesh (or html) so to speak – visit http://fishgirl7.googlepages.com/home . I have been using this page for a number of weeks now on a variety of pc’s and it’s bloody wonderful
It still needs some work as I keep remembering things that need to be on there, but as I said, to date, bloody wonderful.
