Poll: your browser's home page?

2 points by yarone 15y ago ↗ HN

What do you use for your browser home page?

Wondering if the "home page" is actually used or if it is a kind of vestigial tail. Is your home page an active part of your workflow (or is it just, kind of, "there")?

I do find myself using the Chrome "New Tab" page, clicking on the "Most Visited" sites. I'm wondering if there is an opportunity to create a new type of home page, based around utility/functions:

Mail: Gmail

Blog: Blog | Blogger Admin | Feedburner

Fax: HelloFax

Social: Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn

Dev: FogBugz | BaseCamp

Basically, a place to neatly list all of the services you use so they're within easy reach.
