iGoogle inspired start page with tabs support and built in RSS reader, weather, quote of the day widgets which can be resized and positioned around, couple customisation options are available as well. I was missing such type of app ever since iGoogle stopped being available, so here it is. There are probably some bugs lurking around which i'll try fix in coming days/weeks but it's usable for now.

Full disclosure, app was created with massive aid of LLMs (mainly Claude Sonnet)

    iGoogle was great. It was a customizable personal dashboard with widgets you could drag and drop, including a really good built-in RSS reader. Which was pretty sweet at the time. Unfortunately, like any Google product that was actually good, it was discontinued in 2013.

    Like Crunchy said, iGoogle was providing You with canvas on which You could place various types of widgets, resize them to your need and arrange as You want them. You could also create tabs so it was possible to categorise your RSS feeds (Sport, News, Hobby, etc). iDeck is my attempt at recreating that functionality.

    The dogshit logo let me know this was an LLM project before I read the disclosure.

    I think you are pretty rude. OP don't deserve that.

    If you want to coment on the use of AI it's one thing, if you want to state you don't like the logo, I can relate and agree.

    An LLM made the logo, if OP is attaching their ego to it that's their problem.
