    Yahoo UK is my homepage too, I like the way that you get news, interesting stories and a search bar in the home page.

    And I do quite like Yahoo services.

    Google Personal Homepages are just as good because you have total control of the content.

    The USA ones are interesting - all blokey searches except Chris Brown (who he?)

    Bet 90% of the female searchees were looking for porn :
    "The Jaguar's going cheap"
    "Shouldn't it be purring?" :confused:
