I do not believe that there is a limit
As much as iGoogle is amazing, Google has decided to end iGoogle service as of November 1, 2013. You can still enjoy iGoogle until then. There are countless apps and gadgets that you can add to your iGoogle page, such as a calendar, countdown, dictionary, translation, word of the day, birthday reminder, local gas prices, weather, and a gmail snapshot.
You have to find the igoogle apps and search hamster
You can get rid of your iGoogle page by going to your upper righgt and clicking on Classic Home and it should take you back to your normal google page.
It is because of the extension or the homepage set to iGoogle. You can remove the extension to get a blank page.
The i in igoogle represents the fact that that page is your personal content and it refers to you(or I in first person veiw)

iGoogle is Google's customisable home page. Chrome is a Web browser.
One Page takes up to 20 apps
The purpose of the page is to provide a personalized experience. You can customize your page with different themes, your own pictures, and many different widgets.
If you are trying to get back to the old Google page instead of the new iGoogle one, go to the upper right hand corner of the new one and click "Classic Home" and you should be good.
When you are on iGoogle, near the top of the page above your apps it says: "Show this page every time I start to browse the web. Make iGoogle my homepage". Click on that to make iGoogle your homepage.
