MySurfPad.com, a new start page tool, takes users’ individual online wants and needs, and conglomerates them all into one customized dashboard. Aimed at the US market at the moment it’s a good idea that may catch on over here in blighty.

Users tweak their respective Surf Pads to reflect the information they want quick access to, whether it is weather, music, email, news, YouTube videos, or any other number of fine-tuned details. Minute accessories, such as a calculator, to significant details, such as upcoming travel information, is all accessible in one centralized forum with MySurfPad.

You could say that this is just like the old fashioned FiloFax but its online.

The site does have great potential. The automatic links, such as those to Facebook and Wikipedia, connect users to where they want to go. An abundance of choices provide users with numerous customizable options.

At the moment we are just giving this one star – it’s one to try but maybe with a few adjustments it could be useful for us all in the UK.
