A feature that Gmail has is that you can set up a filter. When using the filter, you give it a word or phrase and tell it what you want done with those messages. If you want all your mail from a teacher forwarded to a separate email address all you have to do would be set a filter up with the teacher's name and tell it to forward to a certain address. Another feature that Gmail has is that you can add a label to messages. When you are reading your emails, you can add labels on certain messages so they are easier to find later.
One feature that I found interesting with the google calendar is that you can get reminders text to your cell phone. I use my phone way more than an actual computer so having my events text to me is an awesome feature. Another feature that I found interesting was that you can use the calendar without the Internet. It is only a read only version but at least you can still see your events,
I actually had an iGoogle homepage at one time and did not care for it but I can see its advantages for some things. I like that you can add the different apps like the weather and even games. A feature that I was not aware of is that you can get your email displayed on your iGoogle page. This puts everything you need in one spot which is convenient.
Nice job. :-)
