Ask HN: What's your homepage?
It looks like Google is going to insist on adding more and more garbage to the once fantastic iGoogle. Since they are adding things that I can't easily get rid of, I'm in the market for a new home page.
What do you guys use for your homepage? (Even if the answer is your startup's web site, I'm interested!)
- markup 18y agoMy homepage is set to http://keyboardr.com/ http://keyboardr.com/, but I rarely hit the button to go there; my browser starts with a blank page
- icey 18y agoI haven't seen this before. It's pretty cool (and fast!).
- markup 18y agoYup I actually love it. It's clean, simple and fast. But somehow I just tend to use the browser's builtin search thingie. I've never been a "homepage" kind of person, I guess :-)
- cmos 18y agoI love this concept! I was just using the default firefox page, but now this is my homepage.
- cperciva 18y agoMy home page is set to http://www.sfu.ca/ http://www.sfu.ca/ -- my undergraduate university's website. It sounds crazy, but this actually turns out to be quite useful: I very rarely go to that website deliberately, but having it as my home page means that any interesting news is likely to catch my eye in the fraction of a second between opening the browser and going to whichever website I actually wanted to look at.
- andhapp 18y agoMy homepage is Netvibes.com straight to my feeds and hours of procastination...
- Zev 18y agoSafari 4's Top Sites.
- rms 18y agoabout:blank but I almost always start from the previous session
- Calamitous 18y agoSame here. about:blank has been my homepage for years-- one of the few holdovers from my IE days.
- mixmax 18y agoI use a small page I put together that displays the weather for my location and the links I use most. I've been meaning for a long time to add a bit of functionality (adding/deleting/changing links) to it but haven't gotten around to it yet. It's just a handcoded file, but it gets the job done. here it is: http://www.maximise.dk/start/ http://www.maximise.dk/start/
- icey 18y agoThis is a pretty good idea - I may end up just rolling my own like you have; that way I only have myself to blame if I don't like it =D
- lazyant 18y agomy homepage is set to my bookmarks (an html page with the exported bookmarks).
- wallflower 18y agoAt work, my company's cafeteria menu on the Intranet. Think Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
- troyto 18y agohttp://helpuu.com/ http://helpuu.com/, check it out.
