Hi all,

Gogo - A Logo Based Personal Start Page

Everyone has their personal favorite start page for their browser. Some like iGoogle, some need a little more information. There have been several articles written on Make Tech Easier about different options. Reviews of 43Marks, iGoogle, myHomepage and a homepage battle have all graced the pages here. This will add another style homepage to the list.
www.gogo.ie is a more visual homepage. It works in a similar way as many of the others, but adds a little bit of flair. It looks pretty simple, but it has a lot of variety; over 25.000 different preset sites. The best part is, there is no account to sign up for.
To start out, go to http://gogo.ie you will see the standard start page. The page will have 120 different logos for popular sites. To go to the site, click on the logo. Pretty straight forward stuff.
You will also see 26 other categories to the left. By choosing one of these categories, you will see logos that have to do with travel or career or dating.

2; Select ‘Options’.
3; In the ‘Home page’ section, select the ‘Open this page’ option.

Internet Explorer

2: Select ‘Internet Options’.
3: Click the ‘General’ tab.
4: In the ‘Home page’ section, enter http://www.gogo.ie/ in the text box.
5: Click ‘OK’.
With all of the homepages out there, the final decision comes from how it fits your needs and browsing habits. I have mentioned before how for the start page for Portable Firefox, I like something very light weight and not a lot of graphics so it loads fast. On my other browsers I tend to use iGoogle or something similar. Even if you have something that works for you, it doesn’t hurt to know what else is out there; it may work even better.
