igHome is a news page introduced in 2012 as an alternative to iGoogle, the personal web portal launched by Google in May 2005.[1][2] Originally designed as a customizable "home page", like iGoogle, offering users the possibility to build a personalized start page containing a central search box and a number of gadgets. igHome mimicked the user interface of iGoogle.[3] Registered igHome users could create multiple tabs and import RSS feeds.

As of 1st October 2026 igHome removed all customization (and existing registered users' customizations), instead providing a default, unmodifiable view of a variety of news widgets (RSS feeds) divided across themed tabs.
