Uncover the Internet

Start Your Browsing Day with Startlike

Let’s just throw it out there. I’m on the computer all the time. Luckily the vast majority of the time I’m on the computer I’m also enjoying connectivity to these here Internet pipes. I have a startup routine that I will get my computer all setup and start Firefox and a variety of my tabs will open. Some of these tabs are ongoing applications like my various webmail accounts, but others are merely there for start-up as a welcome to my day. One of those tabs is my Startlike.com page for The Great Outdoors.

My Startlike - The Great Outdoors homepage

Every morning I’m greeted with a beautiful photo of the great outdoors.

With my family’s enjoyment of camping, this continues to keep me in the mood of enjoying the earth around me whenever possible.

The webpage is very helpful with resources too though. It’s well designed and you can customize it to depict your own favorite scenes instead of the great outdoors. Scenes like: golfing (also beautiful), diving, space, exotic escapes and skiing.

As you can see from my screen shot, there are a few different areas I’d like to highlight on the site.

  1. Various boxes on the photo are active. You can hover your mouse over the box and read information about the photo or other related resources.
  2. Social networking tools are built in to visit sites like Facebook, share links, join discussions about the photo and share your own photos.
  3. An easy Google search is available on the page that allows you to search a variety of Google resources quickly.
  4. An option to change your preferred photo theme as I share previously.

If you’ve been looking for a way to freshen up your start page on your browser and want to include some helpful tools and resources at the same time, give Startlike a try.
