The Perfect Homepage

Huge Improvement. 3 years after I came up with the idea to to have my own personal page that had links and a google search box, I did what many asked for.

This new version has 3 different RSS feeds. currently Sports news from Sportsline.com, Torino 2006 Oylimpic news from CBC.ca, and Word of the Day from Urban Dictionary. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and they automatically update, so you are getting up-to-date information straight from the source.
What sets my site apart from others alike is the scoreboard. You can chose from NHL, NBA, MLB, NFL and PGA. like the RS feeds, they are updated all the time by Sportsline.com. A big thanks goes out the snowboard.com's own Funks Hybrid for his great javascript writing skills. He made it possible to open the scoreboards in the same frame, aswell as getting them to reload every 1.5 minutes for the latest scores.
It still has great links(including snowboard.colonies.com) and the Google. not to mention the nice design to compliment it all.
