The iGoogle forum isn’t easy to find but its at https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!categories/websearch/igoogle-personal-homepage. And, the termination of support for iGoogle mobile was effective yesterday. Among other places it was announced at http://support.google.com/websearch/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2664197.
