Really now, about:blank is the ultimate site. Lets compare it to other commonly used websites.
about:blank
-Serves as a great homepage
-Has no ads
-Has no pop ups
-Guranteed instant load time
-Will not cause epileptic siezures among people
-No negative effects on me
-Has no information
http://www.Yahoo.com
-Who wants to load their browser, only to find garbage?
-Has many adds
-Has pop ups
-Will sometimes take a while to load, and "Yahoo.com" will be blocked entirely by school filters, while "www.Yahoo.com" does not get blocked
-May have links to epileptic siezure causing sites
-Sometimes makes me wish to break my computer
-Merely links to information, though still quite handy
http://www.IGN.com
-Only serves as a good homepage half the time (see below)
-Has many adds, plus the fact half the time when you want to go to a page a giant add comes up with a link to the page you wanted to view in the first place above it, occuring on the main page too
-Has pop ups
-Sparatic load times
-May have links to epileptic siezure causing sites
-Makes me mad when colmns aren't updated, or theirs no new interesting stuff
-Has quality information when the page isn't a giant add
http://www.Reallifecomics.com
-Is a good homepage, as you start off your internet voyage with a good old fashoined laugh
-Has adds (though sometimes to cool sites)
-No pop ups
-Occasional sparatic load times and and sometimes broken links
-No associative properties with siezure causing sites yet
-I get sad on weekends, because there are no new comics then
-Has hilariously funny stuff on it
http://www.Oddworldforums.net
-Serves as a decent homepage
-Random replacements of pictures with banners, bringing attention to the "victims". Sounds like communism in the first degree to me.
-No pop ups
-Sparatic load times
-Links to potential siezure inducing sites
-I get sad when there are no new posts, I get angry when there are annoying spammers, I get pissed when the "error" page repeatedly comes up when I attempt to post a reply over and over again, will sometimes cause conflict in homework or sleep time if there is conflict
-Some annoying, some funny, and some cool stuff
In conclusion... Real Life Comics is the only page that even statistically comes close to matching the mightiness of about:blank. Thus, I rest my case.
