New Google product - Fusion

"Fusion," is a personalized home page.

In this early stage, it incorporates Gmail, news, weather, stocks, driving directions, and movie data. Also it pulls in Web content from the BBC, NY Times, Slashdot, Wired, Quote of the Day, and Word of the Day. To come in the future: Any other RSS feed.

Its live now on labs.google.com
Usability looks good - nice edit-in-place for the page, and drag-and-drop modules.

On this one self-designed page, you can select and organize the content you choose:

  • Latest Gmail messages
  • Headlines from google news and other top news sources
  • Weather forecasts, stock quotes and movie showtimes
  • Bookmarks for quick access to your favorite sites from any computer
  • Your own section with content you find from across the web
