I’ve been trying pageflakes recently and find it very convenient to use.  Essentially it is similar to MyYahoo! where you can pull in different content and also your email.  However, Pageflakes main advantage is that they can aggregate not only content or mail from Yahoo!, but from most of the leading websites.

I’ve got my Gmail linked up and you can see your most recent mail on that page.  What’s more, you can even read the details (not just title and sender) and even reply on the homepage of Pageflakes.

Thanks to RSS fees, there are a lot of content available and most impressive is that you can even have youtube feed sent over to your pageflakes page.  My favorite Flickr photo can also be fed to the page.

Creating your own pages only takes a few minutes.  You could get content from Reuters, Businessweek, CNN, ESPN.  You can also add PIM applications like calander, to-do-list, clock.  Leading social networking sites such as youtube, MySpace and Flickr also being available.  I don’t see any ads on the page so not sure what is their business model.
