With the ever increasing number of websites you have to remember to visit to update your status, upload those images and see what everyone is doing you need a easy way to store and find them all in one place. You may now be saying use your bookmarks feature in your browser, but what if you want your favourite links right in front of you when you open your browser or a new tab.The answer you are looking for is in the form of Homepage Startup. Even though it may look quite simple when you first look at it there is a bunch of things you can do to make it your own. To unlock some of the following features you may need to sign up for a free account to the service which won’t take long and doesn’t require many details.
The first outstanding feature of Homepage Startup is that you can add your link name and link into a box. After saving this information you will then see a preview of that web page in the box. To go to the website you have saved all you have to do is click on the image. This can be really useful for the sites you may have added but can’t remember what they are, and will save you having to go to the site to find out.
Another good thing about Homepage Startup is that if you have an account you can log in any where on any computer and still be able to access all your links how you left them. You can also decide if you want your links to be available for the public to see or private so just you can view them when you are logged in.
A search box from Google is also provided at the top so you don’t have to go far to start searching when you launch your browser or new tab. The search is simply a embedded Google search and will redirect you with your search term to the Google results page.
If you want to organise your links even further you can actually move the boxes anywhere around the page in any order or place you want. If you don’t like the order you have put the boxes in there is a simple reset position button. And even further than that you can have multiple ‘tabs’ so the amount of links you have is near on endless.
Finally you can decide how many boxes you actually have by selecting how many rows and columns you want. All of these features are great for really making this your own, making so that you can use it every time you see it and speed up your browsing.
