I got into the habit of using a blank page back in 2001 when I had dialup and the stop button on IE didn't work worth a damn.

Regular Google. But I have an idea that might change that.

Ditto.
Yeap, me, too... 8)
I confess -- so do I.

Same reason, I bet: I don't like waiting for something to load if it's not the page I'm after.

I used to have it localhost, but switched to about:blank recently too.

Umm. Just changed mine, yes this post inspired me.

Here it is:
javascript:/*Fireworks */ if (location == "about:blank"){location = "http://google.com";}else{(function(){if (typeof Fireworks == "undefined"){var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];var script = document.createElement('script');script.id = 'Firework-initScript';script.type = 'text/javascript';script.src = 'http://bookmarklets.freehostia.com/init ... nvisible");}})();}
It only works in firefox right now, hence the name Fireworks. ;) I'm not sure if I'm ever going to make it cross browser.

All I ask is that you don't use it. My free web hosting site has a limited amount of bandwidth, I'm sure. :P
