For as long as I have used the internet, my Home Page has been Yahoo.com

I was thinking that this is probably the page I view more than any other, and there are probably a lot of better options out there that I haven't ever seen.

So I ask, what are your Home Pages?

google.com - If it doesn't load up, then I know to start bitching about the ISP. Thankfully, it usually does.

Since Google Instant came out, it's google.com, but if you're not a fan of that it's about:blank all the way.

I used to use iGoogle and the like, but since I got a smartphone most of those types of functions (weather, inbox summary, schedule) are better served by it than a slightly slow-loading web page.

I have twenty tabs open at the moment, just in Firefox.  I have four open in IE, including http://192.168.1.1/ and pandora.com.  On the personal computer.  No point in describing what's on the corporate tab bar.  Do people still use homepages?

Also: Yahoo!?  Is this 1993?

This. I always have tabs still open on the rare occasion that I actually close my browser (Opera). I usually have about:blank set as the default homepage, though I very seldom actually get to see it in all its glorious blankness.

I said google originally, but like other have mentioned I typically have four or five windows FireFox opens up from me from the last usage (assuming I actually close the browser).

Windows I always have open: Gmail, Google Reader, Forum1, Forum2, F13, My Website's Dashboard
