Google Child Care Gadget Google announces CareforKids.com.au gadget Google has announced the release in Australia of an updated version of iGoogle, Google's personalised homepage. The announcement showcased new gadgets developed in collaboration with CareforKids.com.au and News Limited. The new CareforKids.com.au gadget enables parents to use their personal Google homepage (iGoogle) to source child care in their local area. Gadgets are mini applications that users can arrange on their iGoogle page making it easy for people to create a page that reflects their individual needs and interests. Head of Products for Google Australia, Rohit Dhawan, said iGoogle has been one of the fastest growing products in the last two years and continues to increase in popularity. 'Hundreds of thousands of Australians are accessing quality content from around the web directly from their iGoogle page,' said Rohit. Key advantages of the CareforKids.com.au gadget For parents, one of the key advantages is that each time they visit their Google home page (iGoogle) the CareforKids.com.au gadget remembers their specific child care requirements and displays matching child care services. For example the gadget can be set to only show long day care centres in postcode 2000 with vacancies for a 6 month old on Wednesday and Thursday. Importantly, the parent doesn't have to re-enter their requirement each time they want to check availability. The iGoogle gadget makes it even more important for child care providers to ensure they keep their vacancy information current on CareforKids.com.au Up-to-date details helps ensure parents receive the best quality information and increases the likelihood of your service filling any vacancies. You should have received your monthly email today showing your current vacancy info published on CareforKids.com.au.
