No, I didn’t “just notice” that Google has personalized home pages. I did, however, just start using it as an online RSS aggregator.
Using the “Add Content” button in the top left (not shown in the above screenshot, but you can’t miss it), you can add custom content with the last option; just put in the RSS feed link of your choice.
I’m not certain how to get a proper hyperlink to the RDF files that typepad wants to use for feeds… otherwise Scott Hodge and Brian Glass, not to mention others, would be on there as well.
I used the Firefox extension Sage for a long time, but after awhile I found that I didn’t really use it anymore… I just went straight to the web pages of the blogs themselves most of the time. Displaying the last few feeds on the Google home page is much nicer; I use this as my home page most places anyways, and I can see at a glance if my frequently read blogs have any new posts. Nice.
