I've used iGoogle as my home/start page for years now, but have recently been notified that it's going away later this year. Apparently because there are mobile/chrome apps/plugins that do that same - though how either of them help me on a Windows PC with my preference for Firefox I don't know!
I mainly use it for aggregating RSS feeds from various development blogs, and from news sites. I also have a few gadgets such as weather forecasts.
(I would include an image so non-iGoogle users know what I'm talking about, but I'm too new to be trusted!)
So, my question...what are your ideas for replacements/alternatives? Either web based, or (Windows) desktop application.

You could rather use widgets in gmail and apps in chrome to make pure Google magic and simulate something very similar to iGoogle easily. – Bharadwaj Srigiriraju – 2012-07-04T18:07:24.943
Could the question be moved to http://webapps.stackexchange.com/ instead of closing? Actually there is http://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/28590/is-there-an-online-alternative-to-igoogle
