Google has something like a portal now. google portal. I found the link in my del.icio.us/popular in my rss reader. It looks like the story also ran on slashdot, so I might be the last to know. The drag and drop bit is truly lucious.
I remember how distinctly wonderful altavista was until it went portal. I hope google isn't going to go the way of altavista. I also hope they don't become evil, now that they have my mail, my web pages, my desktop and my search terms.

I also hope they don't become evil. I wonder how I would function on any given day if I had to replace Google with another service or services.
I do like the drag and drop method of arranging the objects. I like that they are improving the interface between us and the Web. I use Google maps almost to the exclusion of Mapquest because I find Google maps to have a better interface.
