Personal home page
By combining emerging web applications, especially feeds, individuals can create their own 'personal' home page with content automatically provided by different content sources.
A 'classic' example is iGoogle - the Google Personal Homepage. This offers a dynamic page that an individual can customize through their Google account. Individuals build the content of their page from thousands of feeds or from Google Gadgets.

Another similar service is netvibes - www.netvibes.com
Many other web sites also offer personalisation of their content. An individual creates an account on the site and can customize, to some extent, how they access the site's content and services.
To some extent, social networking web sites like FaceBook also provide a space where an individual can have a page that combines content in feeds from different sources.
