Yeah another shout for igoogle, it is superior. Most people set a homepage to a site that they will always visit anyway. I suppose the theory here is that it saves you a click. I prefer my homepage to show me some stuff I might otherwise not see, but obviously still is interesting to me, so igoogle really works well for that.

Same here, the one with the google search engine. Dunno why since the google search bar is built into firefox, guess I've been too lazy to change it.

Will check out this igoogle stuff though.

At work, it's the website of the place I work:

At home, this is the same as me.

This iGoogle sounds pretty cool, but I'm unsure if I really want all that ****. 9 times out of 10 when I open up my web browser at home it's because I want to search for something specific. I do enough just random surfing at work.

MSNL was my homepage but this thread convinced me of iGoogle. I saw my roommate using it but never bothered to check it out. Pretty cool though.

Speed-dial. Basically a customisable google chrome 9 most visited thing, but for firefox.

I think you can get one that displays 16 web pages as well but I haven't got it.

ESPN as your homepage is such a mega-fail. List of top stories or an RSS on iGoogle is vv superior.

This should be obvious to, well, anyone who has ever had the displeasure of using ESPN.com.
