How do you organize?

How do you (or do you?) organize your online life? It's hard! Well, I have two online lives - one at work and one at home. And my poor Blackberry tries to keep up with both.

At home, my homepage is iGoogle, and I think it's pretty awesome. There are so many ways to customize it, and each of these "gadgets" were added by me - there are hundreds (thousands?) of others. Here's how mine looks:

I very often don't end up leaving my homepage at all. I don't have to strain my poor little fingers typing in all those links. And even though I am not really fond of hamsters or any other rodent-like pets, I'm kind of smitten with my little friend Harry. He runs on his wheel, and sleeps, and cleans himself, and nibbles on water. And if I click, he gets a little pellet of food, which he loves. Yes, I just said my online hamster loves pellets. I use the calculator and the to do list constantly.

When I'm stressed out or feeling overwhelmed, I clean. Usually I scrub the floors or the bathtub. But sometimes I rearrange my iGoogle and empty my internet cache and organize my documents. Aaah, much better now.

I was the post right after yours on Whatever this morning, and I had just had to come over here and tell you that was absolutely HILARIOUS!!! I love a good laugh first thing in the morning.
Now I need to look in to this iGoogle thing because that looks so cool!

Vera, I am sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I've been kind of a lazy blogger lately.

Where exactly in Europe are you from?

I do know a few Vera's in Germany, at one point I had two other Vera's in my English class at university. That was quite confusing.


And to answer your question: I don't organize at all :)
