I am sick of MSN.com so I need some ideas for a new home page. |
|
Everyday brings a new Obama bashing headline of made up bullshit on there.

Their front page has different featured articles every day, news, and other stuff. Here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_PageDU is also a nice choice. :):)

which is the best and most breaking news on the web e-mail and facebooks alerts can be viewed by a widget.
'Discuss' DU is good because you can view videos, editorials, breaking news and the latest topic on discussions.

I like weather. I like knowing what the weather is like all over the world, where my loved ones are.
It's the illusion of control. And the really cool weather maps.................

19. Hey....... At least its not AOL- |
|
I changed MSN as my homepage back in 2002. I used to have a Zen site as my homepage for a morning thought.
Start using widgets, facebook, and RSS feeds. Your homepage should really be your own website or DU.

20. I change pretty often.. |
|
I don't use a news or political site anymore. I like to have some other interest of mine as a home page. I use book sites, arts & crafts..stuff like that. Things that I want to explore.

22. I use My DU, DU Lounge, and Yahoo as my three tabs. |
|
Just use DU as your homepage. It's easier to find more news headlines that way.

That or HuffPo--the latter is nice because of the variety of the not-so-serious.

33. Use tabbed browsing. Put each of those on a tab. Use that group of tabs for home page |

Loads up nice and quick :)
I never understood the point of a homepage. I usually open up a bunch of different pages at once, and it's easier and less taxing to have just a blank page rather than six yahoo.com's or something.
Make the switch, you won't regret it :)
