Corporate uses for iGoogle

I am not sure if I will be excommunicated from TechEd for blogging about the G-Word on a TechEd CommNet machine, but I have been meaning to post about iGoogle for a while now. A few of our lawyers have asked for a tool to manage RSS feeds. Outlook would seem the obvious choice, but with document management it's just way too busy in there. iGoogle provided a great solution for us and we are now looking at ways to incorporate a CGW themed iGoogle into our intranet. Google is a familiar interface for our lawyers and they find it easy to use. The tools like the meeting planner gadget, which allows them to easily plan meetings with overseas attendees, have also proved popular.
