no place like homepage?

[magicicada]

what do you use as your home page? more importantly, what type of webpage is it? do you use a neutral search engine page like google, or a news site such as yahoo? i'm still using yahoo and i am really getting sick of it. i want it to be something more active than a google search box, but at the same time, i'm really concerned about the time sink effect of constantly clicking through to see what has changed. so, what do you use? what do you like, and dislike about it? and finally, do you use a neutral page between applications or do you just keep clicking along?

I use excite.com (My Excite) but with it customized. The wallpaper is fish, many of my bookmarks are stored there, my stocks are entered, my cartoons (most web based with the custom link done there,) I got rid of the sports news and put in space news instead, and so forth. Www.excite.com default is blah but it is really customizable. It also updates the news and stocks automatically.

Also, if you use Firefox, you can have multiple home pages. I load with My Excite, Vaxer, and LJ.
