Does anyone use a customizable homepage?
I've been using my.netscape.com for the last several years...
It's a great source for news headlines, sports scores for the teams of my choice, weather for the cities of my choice, and stock market prices for the equities and funds of my choice...
It's a nice "clean" page and needs little content filtering via Proxo...
However, the login for the last couple of weeks has been "buggy"...
And I've been unable to "fake" a cookie to "force" a login...
I actually hate to part with my.netscape.com, but the login issue has become quite the nuisance...
At this point, I'm seeking alternatives for a startpage that brings in content of my choosing - national news coverage, headlines by CNN and MarketWatch, political headlines, LA Lakers, NY Mets, & Purdue Boilermakers scores, and quotes on my stock portfolio...
Or, perhaps someone has discovered how to "fake" a login to my.netscape.com...

I made my start page from scratch in pure HTML. You probably need a little more than that because you want news and stuff right on the front page. You might be able to accomplish it by using iframes or something. I know that MSN and Yahoo! have ccustomizable pages too.

I'm using my front page from yahoo.com...I've created 4 other subpages with news feeds on business, sports, tech and a RSS feed. On the front page I have stock watch, calculator, weather, notepad, calender, address book and as a side thought a 100mb email with 30mb briefcase.
