All of us use Google right? Well have you tried iGoogle? iGoogle allows you to create your own themed home page & add content to suit your interests, but even better than that it allows you to section your page into tabs. I've been using it for home & for work for a while today I added a 'Wedding' tab. As soon as I created the tab Google automatically added content it thought I might be interested in. Some of it I removed but some was pretty useful. I have also added a 'to do list' tool, a reminders tool & a sticky notes tool. Really handy for keeping track of things even when you are away from home. Have a route through the iGoogle tools & see what else you can find.

MoneySavingExpert.com Official Note:
This is a great tool if you want help getting organised. Go to http://www.google.co.uk/ig?hl=en and it's possible to personalise a page (or tab) to suit your personal interests. So, if you're getting married create a new tab by clicking "add a tab", give it the name "wedding" and it'll personalise the page with info that may interest you. If you're having a baby, name it "baby" or "pregnancy" and the content will include a pregnancy counter, and help and advice from relevant websites and forums. Remember to leave the box saying "I'm feeling lucky. Automatically add stuff based on the tab name" ticked. Just remove anything you don't want.

Congratulations Ms Chazzer!
I've had a go with iGoogle and it's pretty cool :T Will see how I go with it!!! I'd not thought of using it at all but it makes much more sense than my current spreadsheet I keep emailing myself0 -
H2B and I tend to use Google Docs to create word documents and spreadsheets that we can both get access to at the same time. I would be lost without it! I'm going to try iGoogle as well -- I hadn't thought of that!0
