What portal do you use?
I was wondering how many people here use portals, and which ones if any?

Sometimes, I use Excite for a quick glance at the news and my stock portfolio. Never search from it, though; always use Google.

I'm on cable by my default start page is msn.com mainly because I use the money feature to track stocks. I also have them using Yahoo but find MSN easier to use.

Google all the way! I use a modem. With google I don't have to wait for a bunch on nonsene to load, and it does a good job of finding almost anything.

No portals, PCMech is my homepage and Google does my searching.

I use Smart Eplorer (http://www.smarteque.com/) to browse, and have four start pages: My MSN, My Quicken, my KEEN (http://www.keen.com/memberpub/homepa...user=Roy+Kelly), and my own site (http://www.gj.net/~roybjkelly/country).
The first two are to track my finances and the other two are how I generate income. |

A long time ago someone who looked a bit like me, but younger was seen using Prodigy.
My startup page is InsideNewOrleans.com Local news and weather then here. Where else would someone need to go on the web? |
