Re: What Are You Using As Your Homepage?

Google homepage is by far the most excellent. For the last 10 years, I just used a blank page for startup.

Re: What Are You Using As Your Homepage?

Google but I'm always on and somewhere else so it doesn't really apply.

Been using Excite.com for about the last 10 years. It's the most customizable page I've seen and supplies me with everything I need.

Re: What Are You Using As Your Homepage?

I use a blank page... Although I could probably use Contractortalk.com But I usually run 5+ browser windows at one time. I dont want things loading that dont need to they slow me down.

Re: What Are You Using As Your Homepage?

My own webpage... However I've come to realize that I'm bored with it.. Already have google up on the tool bar... I'm thinking perhaps the weather channel for my area, as it will change daily, and is somewhat relevant in my world....

I didn't think any of us really needed a home page, unless of course, one of us just happens to be a republican congressman.

Re: What Are You Using As Your Homepage?

I've got a home made page on my computer - with my most used links.
Google, CTalk, My own forum, adsense, business website, etc..etc.
No graphics and it's on my computer so it loads quickly.
