I added more than 5 sites but I will tell you why I added 5 of the ones I did. The five sites I will tell you about are Android and me, Gilbert Daily Strip, PHD Comics, Endadget and xkcd.
Android and me is a site that gives updates on the latest androids and tips on how to use certain things on them. I added this because I have 2 android gadgets and I like to know what new android products are coming on the market.
Gilbert Daily Strip,PHD Comics and xkcd are sites with a comic strip that are updated everyday. I added these comic strips because I like to read comics and that is a fun way to read them online.
Endadget is a site that has articles about all different types of technology. I added this because I like to know about all the different technology-based gadgets.
I have added Quizlet, Mathninja, My Study Life, CamStudio, Animoto Videos, Calculator, Sticky Notes, Google+, Webcam Toy, My Chrome Theme, Youtube, Cut the Rope, Bejeweled, Plants vs Zombies, Bubble Shooter Deluxe, 3D Parking, 3D Bowling, Flow Free, Where is My Water?, Fruit Ninja and Word Search Puzzle.
Quizlet is a website where you make flash cards to help you study.
In Mathninja you are a ninja that answers math questions. You start with a white belt and the more questions you answer correct, the more points you get and you go up the belt colour up to black which is the best.
My Study Life is a website that helps you organise your classes and study schedules.
CamStudio is a tool that lets you record video and audio activity on your computer.
Animoto Videos is just basically a shortcut to the website (where you make videos).
Calculator is a big scientific/normal calculator.
Sticky Notes is an electronic version of actual sticky notes that you can write things on to remember them.
Google+ is a shortcut to Google plus' website.
Webcam Toy is an application that turns on your webcam and ets you take pictures with different backgrounds and/or effects.
My Chrome Theme is an application that lets you create your own Google Chrome theme by uploading a photo or designing one.
Youtube is a shortcut to the actual youtube website.
Cut the Rope is a game where you have to feed this little creature with candy by cutting the rope that the candy is attached to.
Bejeweled is a game where you switch two gems to make a vertical, horizontal or diagonal row of 3 or more. This makes them disappear and you get points.
Plants vs Zombies is a game where you plant plants to kill zombies that enter your garden.
To the left is my iGoogle home page. I designed my iGoogle page the way I did because it felt right. When I open my iGoogle page, it just feels welcoming and it reminds me of myself and my style. I have added these specific applications because they are most things I open when I use the internet. They are sort of shortcuts. I also put some games incase I get bored. I chose the background I did because it is really pretty. There is also a movie theatre schedule, news reports, sports scores, sticky notes and comics. So that is my reasoning for designing and organising my iGoogle page the way I did.
