What website do you use as your homepage? - Off-Topic

#1 Posted by Blu3V3nom07 (1502 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

I'm wondering what creature comforts y'all Bombers do. What's the first thing your browser comes up to when you poke it?

I use Gizmodo. They've done really annoying practices the last couple of years. but, its still the place where I learned how to make vodka soaked gummy bears. ~ Cheers!

Google on chrome.

Bing on Firefox.

I never use Firefox.

I've used Google as my homepage for years and years. It's super stupid to do that now, since Chrome's address bar serves the same purpose, but old habits die hard I guess.

Google on chrome. I try to avoid my other browsers. But occasionally I have to use IE and on there I just have the default homepage which is MSN.

I use Chrome's most visited/Apps page.

#6 Posted by SythonX7 (130 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

Chromes most visited sites page, couple of middle clicks and I've got all my tabs up that I use regularly (Gmail, Facebook, Giantbomb and Youtube etc.)

Google for me as well. It should probably be Facebook, as that's usually the first thing I check after opening my browser, but I'm too lazy to change it.

Google like most people.

This. I just use the most visited pages for my homepage and search for everything in the address bar.

new tab page on chrome

#15 Posted by illegalnull (60 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

I always used google before, but now just search in address bar and use Safari's "Show Top Sites" on the desktop (equivalent to most-visited-pages).

It's useful for a quick access to google drive of gmail all in one place.

Yahoo! motherfuckers!

I don't actually use it, it's just that it's been my default homepage since the 90's and anytime I get a new browser, I automatically set it as my home page. Otherwise I only use my bookmarks or the google search bar to find anything

#18 Posted by Canteu (2190 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

Google obviously.

#19 Posted by Icemo (547 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

Google.fi. I use gmail too so it's convenient to have google as a homepage.

#20 Posted by Branthog (7047 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

I don't. I use Speed Dial 2 Pro so I have immediate access to everything that is important to me.

Most visited on Chrome.

#25 Posted by mikey87144 (1039 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

Google

#26 Posted by NyxFe (225 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

I thought Gmail would be an obvious answer but apparently I'm alone in that. It's the page I need to visit most frequently by far for work/information/communication.

#27 Posted by probablytuna (2526 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

Facebook. I know, I'm horrible.

However, I don't even use the homepage because whenever I open Chrome I just continue with where I left off with the previously-closed tabs.

#28 Posted by Krataur (205 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

I've used iGoogle for years. I'll have to find a new homepage soon, though, since they're ending iGoogle this November.

#33 Posted by Tearhead (1855 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

Technically Google, but I have my Chrome set to save the tabs I had opened when I close it, so I usually just see whatever I was looking at before I closed the browser.

#34 Edited by Aaron_G (1572 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

I don't open to anything it opens to my tabs/most visited sites on Google Chrome.

#35 Posted by Winternet (7350 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

Google. For no good reason, just because.

#36 Edited by JJOR64 (18130 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

Google. Easy way to test the internet to make sure it's on.

#37 Posted by Nightriff (2898 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

google.com/ig on all my browsers except for firefox which is my backup and don't care what the homepage is

#38 Posted by BigBoss1911 (2254 posts) - 3 months, 6 days ago

Google

The Currently extension with Chrome. It turns the Most Visited tab into something with the time and weather on it, because the default tab is completely useless for me.
