Okay, so what's your Home Page?

September 13, 2008 3:25:47 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

Okay, lets get real personal here.     Just kidding.

There are always one or two questions during the day that I wonder about, one is when folks sign on to the internet, through thier browser of choice, what are they using as their Home Page.

I use IE8 right now and MSN.com for that.  I think MS though Windows Live gives you the option of setting up a Home Page as does I believe Google.  Are you using your Blog site or a personal web site that you have set up?

If you have something set up that you want to show off post a link.  I'm not out to steal anything but if you show me something nice I am willing to change. 

No I won't use your Home Page as mine, though I am looking for suggestions.

I think you'll get the same answer from a lot of people here too.

Just  had a thought for a new Home Page.

With an update coming sometime in the future to WinCustomize, what if they had options to add things to their home page with panels for news and weather and other stuff. 

Hmmm, wonder what the developers and programmers might be working on in the back room?

Made and host 2 webpages on my computer, the first one have the current moonphase and date scripts with the current Day & Night globe picture, the second one recreate the FastDial extension features !
Right now I'm using the first one for my homepage and access the second one from the toolbar.

Sorry for previous post, I try to put thumbnail images for the screenshots but something is wrong, I wonder why we don't have a preview feature for the post, and it seem that the edit feature don't work anymore !

here the direct links for the screenshots

My browser just opens up with the last tabs open. I wonder if you guys have that setup too. I've usually got a few tabs open, and if I close myy browser, I lose everything. So it saves my session and opens up the same stuff....yaddah yaddah yaddah....

I use FF3 with Rogers Yahoo homepage. It shows email preview, calendar, local weather, feeds to local blogs, wincustomize, jack rebel, news, movies, etc. I like it because when I'm elsewhere, I can sign in and access my favorites.
