Sometimes I love being a geek.

Firefox is now set up to take me automatically to my three default homepages. Why have one homepage when you can have more than one? Why code it in manually when you can ask it to choose from a folder, and just keep adding stuff to the folder (if you want to start up with those pages)?

I like being a geek.

I really do, when it comes bundled with "liking technology and getting to know it well". Yes, yes, yes.

Geek. Hee.

(This post brought to you by a combination of the hour, the chocolate, and the Lunatic's poorly-hidden frustration at being unable to find the option to make Firefox stop caching her bloody friends page.)

Does Firefox have a "I don't want this to happen when I open the browser but if I do ACTION X take me to all these home pages in tabs or something" sort of thing? That'd be neat. Like a multibookmark. Or a bookmark-macro.

I wonder what Firefox's "refresh and reload all scripts" key is. In explorer and netscape it is shift or control.

Useful. I haven't bothered learning any of Firefox's specific features except popup blocking.

In Safari if you command-click a bookmark folder, it'll open all the bookmarks in new tabs.

It's nice, and I'm fairly sure that FireFox has an equivalent feature (but I don't use it, so I can't say for certain).

I love Firefox. I also have the adblock extension which makes me want to bake cookies for the developers. :p
