I thought we had this thread already, but I can't find it so here we go...
I'm in need of new home page. I was quite happily using the Yahoo! UK portal but they've ruined it (they've taken away the Guardian, Telegraph and Mail feeds from the news section). Therefore I am in need of a new home page, any suggestions?

Mine's set to a blank page.
After a brief dalliance with the BBC's home page, I reverted to the blank one so it doesn't bog things down when I first open the browser. Most times, I don't want to wait for it to load before I set off for another destination.

Mine's google, but I keep meaning to change it to blank as invariably I know where I want to go and get fed up waiting for google to load. (Not that it takes all that long!)
Shame there's no Google Chrome on PPC, because a blank browser is the same as the google search bar, so you get the best of both worlds.

At work I use Chrome and my home page is set to the work intranet plus a "blank" tab which takes me to the recently used thumbnails page.
At home I use Safari and my home page is the "Top Sites" page in Safari.

BBC News. Quick look at what's going on in the world before heading here.
