I made both an iGoogle and a NetVibes start page. I think that I like NetVibes more. There are so many options all at my fingertips and it is very simple to use thus far. I may use this frequently if I get it set up the way I like. The basic free version offers more than enough features with no need for the paid for versions. I like the fact that it has essential widgets listed so that I can pick which ones I want instead of them automatically placing useless things. The google one feels more like something you just glance at and move forward.
I feel as if online calendars are the way of the future. We basically have the internet in the palm of our hands 24/7 anyways. This puts our calendars and to do lists in our hands. No matter where you go you have access to it and the ability to change things on the fly. I actually use my google calendar semi-frequently as it is synced with my phone and will alert me when events come up. The to do lists I find to be too much work. Setting them up just to mark them off as I do them? Nah, I'll pass for now.
I would recommend using Google calendars to anyone with an android phone. I don't have an iphone or windows phone so I have no clue if you can sync your google stuff with them or not. Google saves me all the time it seems!
