myAOL – A "suite" new startpage from AOL

by on 4:58 pm in Bookmarks, Organization, Tools

I know, I know, my title is corny but that’s what it is.  MyAOL is a personalized startpage suite.  There are three pages to start with.  MyPage – which comes stocked with your widgets, Mgnet – a visual recommendation service, and Favorites – a home for your feeds and bookmarks.  There are plenty of widgets to choose from and they even provide a nice list of feeds to get you started.  The visual discovery service, Mgnet, lets you browse through photos related to stories and allows you to give a thumbs up or a thumbs down so it can learn what you like.  Here’s my screencast tour of myAOL:
