What's a good internet homepage?
 
The place I've been using for the last couple of years, My Way, has been increasingly unreliable and I can't access it from work through our firewall.

Most of us have them. A website that your browser takes you automatically every time you open your browser. I want a customizable page that offers news, weather and (preferably) TV listings. I use it as a jumping off point to all the other sites I frequent.

Any suggestions?

Google has iGoogle, you can customize etc, shouldn't get blocked works pretty well.

I'm sorry if my request wasn't clear...let me reiterate, a little louder this time....

I want a customizable page that offers news, weather and (preferably) TV listings.

If you don't have a constructive suggestion, please don't waste your time and mine.

And some decaf to make you less crotchety.

Try Google news, it is very customizable.

You do realize all the useless time wasting responses served a purpose by bumping your post so it remained visible.

Your welcome.

iGoogle can probably do all that.
