    What's your Start Page?

    Had a strange moment of synchronicity yesterday. I was moving my Start Page from MyYahoo to Google Homepage (Google ig), and came across this lifehacker entry that compares various homepages. I've used yahoo for years now and like having my main bookmarks at any pc I log into. So I transitioned most bookmarks to google, although for some reason it limits the amount of bookmarks to 50. I also noted netvibes in the review, which looks pretty dense/awesome, and may play around with that to see if it's an improvement.

    Below are my "current" start pages - yahoo and google. What do you use? What makes a good start page?

    about:blank is the best start page. That way you don't have to wait for it to produce an error if there's a connection problem (which is especially annoying when you already know about it). Also, I'm used to a blank page, since that's the default in `links`.

    TG is my home page; I press Alt-Home to get there. My browser just shows a blank page when it starts.

    about:blank

    I'm sure my black desktop and my about:blank browser start page say something about my personality, but it's just the way I am.

    Ok TG I expected. But the amount of blank start pages so far is surprising!

    Mine is the msn.com; I like the news that they give. If it wouldnt be my home page I problably would be completely disconected with the world and have no idea whats going on with it.
