Years ago, after stumbling upon the utility of external web-based start pages like My Yahoo, My Excite, My IWon, and the like, I found I was more and more “at home” with My Excite. Unfortunately, after a year or two of that, they changed their format, added too-numerous ads, and generally messed with a good thing. Argh. Too many changes to make it enjoyable anymore. I looked around for something to fill the void and eventually found My MyWay, which was basically patterned after the old Excite personalized start pages, but without the ads. I was saved!

I still use My Way to this day. It loads quick, is very configurable, and generally does all the things a good start page should. A virtual home sweet home. You might want to check it out, even if you’re happy with your current start page or don’t even use one. And, no, I don’t get any “referrals” for this blurb - it’s just an unsolicited opinion about something I find very useful, which you might also.
