Weather Gadget

When you search for 'weather place', Google's OneBox would automatically group weather information into a table that gives a brief summary on the current weather as well as a four days forecast (this is not new). The new thing is that they added a line 'Add to my Google homepage' in the box to promote their Personalize Homepage service. On click, you will be brought to google.com/ig with the weather gadget included and set to show weather of the location you searched for. Pretty nice way to draw users' interest to spend some time and customize their Google homepage.
