What does your internet say about you?

**1337** · 05-30-2008 03:34 AM

I know that all of us (if not running older browser versions) use tabbed browsing and we usually have a default layout. What does your tab setup say about your lifestyle and business?

Most often I have the following:

1. Yahoo! US - Financial home page (yahoo.com)
2. BusinessWeek.com
3. TSBay.org (warez forum)
4. YouTube.com
5. ASmallOrange.com (Website CPanel)
6. RapidShare.com

I also have the Google or Yahoo! search-engine page ready for searching somewhere.

I usually have....

1. Yahoo News
2. YEVF
3. 3-5 more tabs related to researching whatever is on my mind at the time.

Not to mention my email inbox stays open 100% of the time...

I have:
Yahoo Finance
CNBC
YE
Site Point Market Place
Flipsquare.com (I have a site for sale there right now)
Google

Also, my mailbox is always open too.

I noticed both of you have a tab opened already for searching. Just a tip, I have a google toolbar built into the browser ( it can also be configured to search ANY other search engine with a copule clicks). So when I want to search I just hit ctrl+t for a new tab and then type the search into the toolbar.

Once you start having 4-5 tabs open, it can get to be a RAM hog, so I find this helps a little bit.

I have about 3 Firefox windows open at a time:

First Window - My general stuff (i.e forums):

# The Student Room
# Young Entrepreneur
# Yahoo! Answers
# Google Searches

Second Window - Stuff to do (i.e articles I'm reading, news sites)

# Economist.com
# BBC News
# Business Week
# The Times Newspaper
# Mac format
# .net magazine
# CNET UK

Third Window - Anything Else

# Videos I'm playing
# Shopping

Not necessarily all at the same time

I've got the default firefox theme for mac so Google toolbar is built in but I tend to have a page open for it anyway.
