  1. 1. How many webpages or tabs open when you press the home button?

  2. 2. Is overclockers club your homepage?

    • yes, overclockers club is one of my homepages
    • no, it is another tech site
    • no, it is a search engine (yahoo, google, etc)
    • it is another site

Just one, Google's iGoogle home page customized with the news sources I normally read. I use Google Bookmarks for well, bookmarks biggrin.gif

 

I've also turned on Google Chrome's synchronization feature. I have three or four often used bookmarks in the bookmarks bar in Chrome. I like the way that any changes I make there, show up on all my other computers.

 

I have about 200 bookmarks in all (in Google Bookmarks).

just have one homepage, the local surf report so I don't miss it if it's good. Then I have all my other favorites in a tab I just click and do my daily ritual and check all my fav sites.

My firefox opens google, but I use Chrome 99% of the time and I have many tabs pinned so that they open with the browser (which is also set to open what I had open when it was shut down, but even if it weren't, the pinned tabs would still load automatically). That said:

 

14 tabs are set to open automatically.

 

3 emails (junk, school, regular) (I know I could have them all forward to one place, but I like having a tab for each)

Google Reader

Astro Empires (stupid web based game I wish I'd have never started)

OCC

Twitter

Google Translate (I'm taking Spanish at university)

Vista (an online component to the Spanish class)

Blackboard (more school stuff)

Wolfram Alpha (for school, I'm a math minor/engineering major)

Facebook

Web Assign (more school stuff, online calculus 3 thing)

Cramster

 

Then, whatever is not pinned is just whatever I've queued up to look at later, right now that includes

 

A slashdot article

2 facebook threads

Some Blogger Post

Some arcticle from The Chronicle of Higher Education

Some article from the NY Times

Some NPR article

3 Wikipedia pages

One You Tube Video

and a greentechmedia article

 

 

This is a faithful representation of my average usage. I have the attention span of a gerbil.
