68040 2002-08-04 09:24:00 I just wondered. I don't use any (probably should use F1). My wife uses nzoom but it seems awfully slow.
What do other people start their web experience with?
(I don't want to know if you have one that forces you there when you don't want to go there).

68044 2002-08-04 09:43:00 I use about:blank :) :)

I hate having a home page, as I never want to go to the same place each time I load a copy of IE.

68046 2002-08-04 09:45:00 At home (with IE) it's on Actrix (http://www.actrix.gen.nz). That's my stepdads ISP not that the homepage ever gets used.

Opera - none
CrazyBrowser - none
Mozilla - Mozilla (http://www.mozilla.org) (haven't got round to disabling)

At College (www.ict.school.nz) it's always http: which is the school intranet.

I think that HomePages are really only used by n00bs and organised people.

I personally just open up the broswer and proceed to open up a few more windows. Typing the address in each one. I have the sites in the links/favourites but can never be bothered clicking on them so type it in myself (autocomplete is off).

First port of call is always:
http://www.pressf1.co.nz
http://forums.overclockers.co.nz
http://www.stylespc.co.nz
http://www.tastech.co.nz
http://www.pricespy.co.nz

you get the picture.


hmmm, should really get around to creating a batch file or save settings in a browser or something to do it all for me.

68047 2002-08-04 09:46:00 about:blank

There is no page that I always want to go to, esp since I often wnat to open a pile of new windows to enter several urls in. Having to type over an unwanted page loading and wasting my bandwidth is unacceptable. Therefore about:blank.
