Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but i find this simple tip kinda handy....
ever wanted firefox to open to a different homepage? ...with this tip
you can have firefox open mulitple home pages (in separate tabs) when
it starts up.
in firefox, go to edit > preferences > main tab
in the space for the url of your home page....follow the url of your
present home page with a separator: "|" (no spaces or quotations) and
follow that with the url of a different home page (and so on, and so
on...)
i have 3 tabs open (you can add more...not sure of the limit) when i
start firefox, so in my prefernces, the home page line looks like so:
that opens optimum online as my main home page. ubuntu forums (actually
found this tip there) and pcpitstop forums open in adjacent tabs.
....you can of course swap the order around any way you like.
works in windows as well as linux....also works for swiftfox in linux!
hope someone else finds this useful!
