Google is one of the websites that allows you to change the layout of its home page to suite your personal tastes. For example, if you travel alot a special search menu for train/bus times can be set as the home page, making it easier to search your times. Above  is a home page suited to their specific needs.

This it after i've edited it.

This is the standard bbc .co.uk website.

The BBC also allows you to do this. So for example, if you liked the news, it could be first on your homepage making all the breaking news easily accessible. It allows you to do this for a wide variety of things from the weather, childrens t.v to food.
