If you are using iGoogle and find yourself in a lazy mood to populate a new tab you have created with Gadgets. don`t worry there is something for you so Google does that without you doing pretty much nothing:
From Google Operative System:
iGoogle has a very cool feature that populates tabs with gadgets and feeds just by entering a title. When you create a tab, there’s an option called "I’m feeling lucky. Automatically add stuff based on the tab name".
To make things even easier, iGoogle started to suggest popular names sorted by the number of users. There are 227,300 users that have tab named "Lifestyle", 3,725,200 users that named a tab "Music" and 21,070,090 users that couldn’t find a better name than "Home".

And if you thought that it was just a matter of weeks before the new iGoogle version that will bring OpenSocial, Google FriendConnect and of course Canvas View. you may have to wait at least one month or two before that happens:
From the iGoogle Developer Blog
"It’s been a few weeks since I’ve provided an update on the status of the canvas view launch. Our experiments with a small percentage of users have been going well, and we’ve been making some small changes and adjustments based on user feedback (such as reducing the width of the left nav). In the next few weeks we plan on ramping up the number of US English users with the canvas view."
Getting ready for the canvas view
Given the way they phrase “the next few weeksâ€. we may get the final version of the new iGoogle by december. it would make sense.
