Your Google homepage redesigned with the Middle East in mind

Interested in adding an artistic touch to your internet experience? Today Google is launching a set of new ‘themes’ or decorative backgrounds, created to add a Middle Eastern flavor to your iGoogle page, Google’s personalized homepage.

iGoogle, allows users to customize their web experience by choosing the content they’re interested in seeing and having it appear right on their Google homepage.

UAE, Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon and a Shisha Cafe theme are only a few of the Middle East themed iGoogle themes that users can use to decorate and personalize their homepages.

In addition, Arabic users can choose from 30 new Arabic gadgets to personalize their page including: backgammon, to-do lists, puzzles, news, a translation gadget, Arabic keyboards, sudoku, calendars and world clocks just to name a few.

It’s easy to design your own iGoogle page and to find your favourite theme and gadgets.

‘We’ve developed these localized Middle Eastern skins and gadgets as a way to give iGoogle users more fun, quirky options to personalize their iGoogle page,’ said Yasmina Brihi, Marketing Manager Middle East North Africa, ‘We focused on elements that had a local Middle Eastern flavour and we’re providing users with some great new designs, and giving the artists a way to be discovered and express themselves.’
