Tabs or no Tabs?

This post is not really a tip, it is just to see what people like to use.  I myself like to use separate windows for a web browser.  While other people like to use tabs within the web browser.  Are you someone that likes to use a bunch of tabs or do you like separate windows for opening different websites. 

Some people like to close the web browser before opening up a new web site.  I sometimes do that to not have clutter.  I believe that Mozilla Firefox is a great browser for someone that likes to use a bunch of tabs for opening up web sites.  Internet Explorer works great too but Firefox is a much better browser for it (in my own humble opinion).

I would like to end this post with a little tip.  If you would like to change your homepage on Mozilla Firefox, click on Tools, then options.


Either type in your Home Page and click OK or use one of the provided buttons.  Use Current Page will use whichever web site that you have opened.  Use Bookmark will use a bookmark that you have saved.  Restore to Default will restore the original Home Page that was put in when you installed Mozilla Firefox.

In order to change your Home Page in Internet Explorer, click on the arrow by the picture of the house on the top of the screen.  Or type in (ALT+M).


Click on Add or Change Home Page.  On the next screen, you can choose:
1) Use this webpage as your only home page - creates the current web site as your home page
2) Add this webpage to your home page tabs - adds the current web site to your home pages

You can have multiple home pages, but I normally just choose one to avoid confusion.
