    It's one I built by hand, to array my most frequent needs in a way that seems to me easy to read and easy to use.

    One thing I do is have a timed script go out and fetch all my favorite comic strips overnight, so, in the morning (my morning, most people's afternoon), I can just click on one link and get the lot displayed for the day.

    Homepage in IE & Firefox is Google News UK. The only bit of news I get in my life. Quickly scan the headlines with each opening of a new window and you keep up to date.

    Having eBay as your homepage is just dangerous if you ask me, encourages you to have a shop everytime you go on the net :eek:
    But I'm with TLDTrader.com, Yahoo always! I find it boring just seeing Google's logo, prefer to see a bit of news when I bring up my homepage :D

    Surprised to see none of the DP addicts have the DP New Post SERPs as their homepage.

    I hate having any page be a 'start' page. I have several hot links in my menu bar so I can get them in a flash, but I don't see any one site being so important that it needs to be displayed when I start my browser.

    Yes, Yahoo news is up to par. I frequent sports and tech sections most of the time.

    I was inspired by an ealier post in this thread and couldn't believe I hadn't done it earlier.

    I've created a page with my most frequented links on it and searches programed into it - then made it my start page. Less clicking and fast navigation means less time online (yay!)

    Was Google before that.

    Like several other of you I created my own home page with all my major links. This way when I am away from home and my own computer and need a URL it is quickly available. I encorporated weather feeds for locations I follow.
