As you will see with a personalised Google home page you can get snippets of news and all sorts of tools to create your own home page. Once you are set up on your new home page, there should be a link called “Add Stuff” on the right. Please click!

You should now be on a page listing possible gadgets you can add to your homepage. Click the link that says “Add RSS Feed” on the left of the page.

In the new “Add RSS Feed” box that appears – type / paste the following: http://www.houseoftravel.co.nz/gadgets/google/HOT_Booking_Gadget.xml and click Add.
