Mind explaining a bit further for those who aren’t familiar with iGoogle?

Sorry! There is a screenshot on anori.app which will tell it better that my words I believe. But in short, Anori allows you to add different widgets to your new tab (bookmarks, world time, notes, etc) and organize them in layout you like.

There was similar product from Google 15 years ago which allowed to create personalized start page with different widgets, but it was closed long ago. I wasn't familiar with it first-hand, but I found it funny how similar concept Anori had to iGoogle when I finally learned about it

Sorry to "LMGTFY", but Wikipedia does have good info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IGoogle

Also a good list of alternatives when iGoogle was shut down in 2013, https://www.computerworld.com/article/1521275/there-s-no-pla...
