[selfmindead]

I'm starting a website for a new little idea i came up with... I just have a few questions for you guys, hopfully you can get around to answering them...

1) What do you use the internet for most?

2) If your browser's homepage was set to the perfect website, what information would be available to you on it?

3.1) Approximatly how many times per day do you open your browser?
3.2) How many times do you open your browser and then type in a different URL instead of using the homepage?
3.3) How many times do you open your browser and actually use the homepage?

4) How often do you change your home page on your browser?

5) What is currently set as your browsers home page?

6) What industry do you work in?

Thanks alot guys!

Okey, let's see...

1) looking for information, posting in forums, chatting, buying/selling stuff, etc.

2) Blank page - perfect browser's homepage. It doesn't take any time to load. Since I need internet for various reasons, one homepage wouldn't fit all my needs.

3.1) It's always open. I close it only when I need to run some full-screan application which requires a lot of cpu/ram resources.
3.2-5) As I mentioned above, I don't use any homepage. (Oops it seems like this survey is not for me.. :])
6) IT. I'm programmer.

Are you going to create a perfect home-page? :]

Ok,
1) I use internet mostly for communication and information, less for gaming.
2) Because I am located in Lithuania, my homepage is set to Lithuania News portal.
3.1) I think, maybe I open it for > 100 times/day.
3.2) Huh, about > 99 times/day
3.3) Few times a day.
4) Never.
5) http://www.delfi.lt
6) Student/RAC Web Designer.

Are you going to create a perfect home-page? :]

well lets hope

think the design freedom of myspace,
the functionality of yahoo or personalized google pages,
the never ending room for improvment of open source

there's alot more to what I'm gonna make, but that's the jist of it. If you have any additional ideas, please feel free to share 'em

Thanks again for the quick responses!

thanks for answering guys, but if you have the time (hopfully you do) can you answer the questions?

To be more informative, I'm just conducting a survey to the general online public to gather information for a project I'm developing. It (obviously) involves home pages, and so thats why all my questions are specifically aimed twards just that.

If you could answer the questions i can put all the answers into a pool and know in order by demand what features i should incorporate into the project first.

Thanks!
