I can no longer edit my home page or access any of my tabs. Any ideas? It appears that this happened with some other people last month, but I can't find any mention of a solution.
I've been a user for sometime. Never had this problem. Just log out of google and then try logging back in again. Have you rebooted your computer recently? Doing so can fix many such issues.
It's basically Google where you can add RSS feeds. I have five tabs on it - my home page (where I have the Google search box, weather, time and date, and top five news stories); a News page (with tons o' feeds), a tools page, a fun page, and a recipes page. Very handy yet, in typical Google style, nice and simply laid out. Stupid name, though.
no problems for me. try flushing your browsers cache and cookies. sometimes that makes it reset more thoroughly than just logging out.

Unfortunately I have no idea exactly what fixed it. It happened late at night... I was tired so I said screw it and went to bed. Worked ok the next day. Not sure if it was something fixed on Google's end or a combination of rebooting and browser restarting. I wish they hadn't named it "i". Ugh. Now it sounds like something the aqua button crowd uses
Thanks for the replies. It almost started working again tonight. I was able to move some stuff around and go to different tabs. All that fun ended when I tried to close the Theme window. When Google got slammed by hundreds of people complaining about the same situation last month, the word was that it was related to the Themes. I, of course, had no issue until I changed the theme a couple of days ago. Now I can't just go back to the Classic, and the Theme window is stuck open. I did try all the reboots, sign-outs, and cookie/cache dumps too. Sigh. I do still love Google though.
To wrap up: I finally found the link that would allow me to reset all of my signed-in preferences. I was hesitant to do that yesterday for fear of losing my calendar data and spreadsheets. And then last night, when I decided to go ahead and reset it all, I couldn't find the link again. Of course, a quick google found it for me again. Natch! I did NOT lose any data. I just had to go back and add my feeds. Note to self: Leave the Theme alone! Classic is just fine the way it is!
I tried playing with the themes when they came out, that lasted about 30 seconds. They don't do anything but take away Google's biggest advantage: its minimalist look.

BUT the seasonal theme with the frog and the ladybug is about the cutest thing I've ever seen in my life. Right now they're practicing karate. Later on they'll have a water fight with balloons and a super soaker. Tonight they'll start a campfire, roast marshmallows, and tell ghost stories. The tea house theme is adorable too. Yeah, it has no point whatsoever and takes up extra screen space and makes the page take longer to load. I still dig it, though.
