If you have a custom Google home page you can add the forum widget to it but clicking "Add Stuff" then click "Add by URL" and use this URL:



http://www.holographyforum.org/phpBB2/rss.php



This will put the latest three posts onto your Google Home page.



Cheers!

I also added an rss feed button.



It would be great if someone could test it for me as I don't use rss feeds.

The link is mostly good except there's a double-quote at the end that messes it up. Remove that and the link will be all-good.

For those few remaining unassimilated feces flinging primates out there (like me) that are not hep to the latest fads on the Internets, this seems to explain what the frack a Google homepage is:

(Found via Google, of course)

Besides being silly, it sounds pretty intrusive to me having all this personal preference and tracking info sucked up and permanently recorded by a single corporation for unknown purposes, but when I realize that Google would never be evil unless legally compelled to be complicit in evil, I am reassured :)

But there is a great backgammon widget! And the current US adminstration would never compromise our security. :wink:

I confess I was too hasty in my dismissive judgement - now that "Super Monkey Poop Fight" is available it's apparent that the Google Homepage is

my platform of the future and the hell with the civil liberties implications.
