I should’ve said this some time ago, but now there are enough widgets to really back it up: Google Homepage is fannnncy.

Mine has:
ON THE LEFT
An AJAX to-do list with three customizable tabs
The RSS feed for my 30boxes calendar
A simple calculator

IN THE MIDDLE
My Gmail inbox
Two most recent Disengage posts
Monthly budget update (RSS feed from budget Livejournal)
Torrent Searches (Pirate Bay, Torrent Spy, ISO Hunt)
IP address Lookup
Recently played Last.FM tracks
Last.FM top weekly trakcs

ON THE RIGHT
Netflix Shipped/Received feed (with cover art!)
Alexa Rank for marymount.edu
Personalized homepage toolkit
Quick bookmark list of often-visited sites

This is the current build, I just dropped my bloglines indicator and a few other search tools (as well as a little Sudoku game that was taking up too much space). If you can set it up clever-like and integrate it with your other webstuff, this is actually realllly useful.
