Get Rid Of Gchat On iGoogle
« on: February 15, 2011, 02:32:59 PM »
I've been annoyed by Gchat in iGoogle for a while now (Every go to igoogle, start searching for something, and then have a previous chat box pop up and have your text sent to the chatter?) but finally I clicked on settings and saw that you can hide it!

I find iGoogle itself is annoying, I'm not into widgets...

GoogleReader, I use some of their priceless features which I don't think the widget has...

I love that too, but it doesn't offer all the functionality of iGoogle.
