Google smarter!
Google has some kick-ass services, but getting to them is a pain in the ass.
We've always wanted to have one single page from which we could access all of Google's services and special searches easily, this is why we've made Googdesk.
Googdesk is in no way affiliated with or endorsed by Google. Google is a trademark of Google Inc.

What a fab idea. However, if possible, could you add something somewhere to confirm that you do not hold any passwords nor personal information etc on your site and that it is secure to user.

I love the idea, but I can't bring myself to use it with the current look. I hate the buttons (can't you just have the underlines?) and while I use many of the items you have linked, I don't need/want them all. Is there some way to edit that? If so, I would really like to use Googdesk as my homepage.
Hi Renae, we feel your pain, buttons are definitely less attractive then links, but buttons are more effective because they can execute a search query immediately, if we use links then you will have to click twice to get search results and for some of the services even enter the search term again, and that's not smarter… every single button on the page executes a search from the textbox, and that's a functionality we will hate to lose, if you have an idea for how to make the page more attractive (without losing functionality) we'd love to hear about it!
Concerning the links, we're working on a customizable version, if you know good web developers (or you are one) we'll be happy to get some help.
Any ways, we're constantly thinking about other ways to solve these problems.
10x for the feedback! keep it coming…
Update: we've added collapsibility to the three sections (more - services - even more), just click on any section heading to collapse it.
You're my home page. How about a button for the Google SMS simulator?
