I already use the IGoogle start page on my home computer. It is set as my home page and what pops up every time I log on. I like how easy it is to add and remove information as well as move it around. I do not have it set as my home page on my school computer. The majority of what I do on my Mac is school related and that is what I want to come up when I log onto that computer.
I will not use the online calendar, I already use the one on my Mac. If I get too many calendars going, I will lose information from one to the other! I do like some of the features on the online ones, but the one on my Mac is right in front of me all the time!
I do not really use to-do lists. I usually lose them. I think that this is something that I definitely could get into using! I am constantly stopping and going, okay WHAT NOW!
As far as class uses, I don't see where any of these things are super applicable. I already use the calendar in StudyWiz to keep my kids informed as well as on my Wiki.
David had an idea about using it on his smartphone. That might work for you and for students as well.
