Too Many Personalized Search Engines To Choose From

Chuck Zimmerman

Windows LiveJust when I finally got my personalized Google and MyYahoo pages set up now there’s Windows Live (beta).

If you haven’t customized a search engine “my” page you ought to. I have a Google Gmail account and MyYahoo email account, both of which you can have previewed on your customized page. I’ve made my Google page, my home page on one computer and my MyYahoo page my home page on my other computer. So what about Windows Live? It seems to have about the same functionality of the others from what I’ve seen so far. However, right now they only let you have an MSN Hotmail email account show up and I don’t have one and don’t want one. I’ve got too many email addresses as it is! Besides, 2 computers is enough for one blogger to deal with.

A nice feature of all of them is built in RSS feed reading. Plus you can then check it from anywhere since you can log into these pages from any computer. I use NewsGator as an RSS feed reader with the plug-in version to my Outlook email program. It works great but I’m beginning to think I could move to one of these search engine services instead. Anyone else out there decided which is better?
