New Home Page Aggregator – PageFlakes
There are a number of ways to achieve the functions this site offers you – not least of all via Google’s various offerings. But if you want to sidestep Google today, why not take a look at Page Flakes?
Pageflakes is an easy way to discover and share the things you like to see online. You can easily create a web start page that keeps track of the many blogs and news sources that you read every day.
You can also add images, videos, a calendar, email, a task-list and other items to further personalise your page. You can even make one-off pages that you can post on the web. This last function may have a social media marketing edge to it – so it is worth checking out.
They also provide the ability to do pagecasts – these are pages you set up with feeds and information on a topic of your choice. I guess this is potentially a great tool for telling people about your business and warming customers up to your products and services. If done correctly.
Here is an example of a pagecast about dogs.

Thanks for that Bobby. I’ll make it one of my blog posts this week.
