igoogle has both positives and negatives

Through setting up an igoogle account, I was able to set my main course of study; music, as a theme for my page. As an educator I can access a lyrics search engine--which is mostly pop oriented, and a quick guitar chord guide. All of these things could be useful. However, there was a music 'top songs' list you can click on to play...and it brings up the yahoo personals page. Okay...I just realized that I can remove the stuff I don't like and add gadgets. the free mp3 player is fun. Okay...fun until the pornographic advertisements come up. I like the general idea of the homepage designed around this search engine. The advertisements were too inappropriate, so I won't be using it much. Using the main search engine for music education, I was given appropriate links.
