Scopus

On Thursday, I attended a work training on Scopus, which is a literature and website database. What got me most about Scopus is that the mainpage (if you have an account) resembles an iGoogle page a little--it has several independently updated fields for your unique information searching needs. Given the success of customizable homepages like iGoogle, I was wondering if this method of information display might be more readily accessible to users because the concept is becoming more familiar.
