The torrent of personalized
AJAXy homepages continues. This week's contender is
ItsAStart.com, a site with
poor punctuation but all the standard features. It has RSS feeds, weather, bookmarks, sticky notes, and a clock. It has
a Google Search widget but no others--a shame when other services offer unlimited, custom search boxes. Also, the RSS
feeds can be expanded to show entire items, which some services lack. But perhaps ItsAStart's sole stand-out feature is
the tag search, which makes a widget that displays an up-to-date feed of blog posts matching your pet tag.
