What's Your Homepage?

[Brewer_010]

Wondering what we all have as our browser's homepage..

Internet Explorer is set up with a blank page for home page. New users of Internet Explorer, there are much nicer sites to open up with, rather than Microsoft homepage.

All Internet Explorer users, try using Firefox. It allows you to set a number of sites in tabs, all of which load up when you open the browser.

BOM, AHB and Whirlpool open up when firefox is opened here.

Boring google. But I reckon I use it 20% of the time I open a page.

Mine is a custom database running on my server. All my favourite links are on the menu, as well as the database containing all my photographic shoots. It started as merely a database to keep track of my shoots and films, but has grown to include a bunch of other stuff too.

I was just thinking to myself that "homepage" used to mean what "website" does now. Every uni student in the 90s had a "homepage." It was usually full of clashing colours and flashing, centred text that you couldn't read anyway because it clashed with the photo background...

I'm the same as you Josh - boring old google. Before that (dark ages) Alta Vista. I have my Gmail account on my google home page but that's it. I don't need any more clutter.

I need 9 homepages so I have them all on the links bar: AHB, BOM, Wikipedia, SMH, OzTips, BNE Times, Google Image search. I have all of their names cut down to 3 letters. They're always ready to go.

Favourites gets a little bit too cluttered for me, so I use 'links' as my favourites.

And I use IE7 with no issues. h34r:

Ahh the internet, where would I be without you?

A personalised Yahoo page with (mostly) sports headlines - and the weird news and cartoons - links to other important sites on the left.
