My default tabs in Firefox:


Webmail (so I can get rid of the spam first)
Ebay (rarely buy anything these days, but still browse)
WiredNewYork :cool:

Skyscraper Page My City Photos N-Z (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/forumdisplay.php?f=126) (I don’t like the way they've rearranged things :()
Skyscraper City New York City forum (http://www.skyscrapercity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=105) (for the pics mainly; for anyone who hasn't seen the Outer Borough Photography (http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=750346) thread, there are some great photos of Brooklyn - Prospect Park South is just amazing)
Amazon USA (http://www.amazon.com/) (books, books, books and the occasional DVD. Even with the exchange rate and shipping, it’s still cheaper – and quicker – than ordering/buying locally; classic example: the fantastic Meier: Richard Meier & Partners, Complete Works 1963-2008 (http://www.amazon.com/Meier-Richard-Partners-Complete-1963-2008/dp/3822836834/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1232869682&sr=1-1))
Amazon UK (http://www.amazon.co.uk/) (ditto above)

SkyscraperPage Found Photos (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/forumdisplay.php?f=23) (it was here that I found out about Camilo Vergara's wonderful Invincible Cities (http://invinciblecities.camden.rutgers.edu/intro.html) website)
Downtown Express (http://www.downtownexpress.com/index.html)
Villager (http://www.thevillager.com/)

Tribeca Trib (http://www.tribecatrib.com/)
Britmovie (http://www.britmovie.co.uk/forums/) (excellent, extremely knowledgeable forum about British Movies, Television and related stuff)
Dictionary (http://dictionary.reference.com/) (this doesn't seem to load properly since I installed Firefox 3.0 but it still works); another good one (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/)

DIME (http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-browse.php) (for downloading Lou Reed/Velvet Underground torrents)
Real Good Time Together (http://www.loureedforum.com/index.php) (Lou Reed forum)
Velvet Forum (http://www.thevelvetforum.tk/) (Velvet Underground)


I also have literally hundreds of other bookmarks, many NYC related, some for the Sixties, British movies, TV (including cult TV) and music, Art Deco architecture, etc., etc.

This is what my browser looks like:

http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/2972/dfvgbfl9.jpg

--W is for weather.com (www.weather.com).
--Gmaps (maps.google.com) and Live (map.live.com) (Microsoft's Live Maps) satisfy the map geek in me.
--Youtube and Wiki speak for themselves.
--DW (www.drummerworld.com) stands for Drummerworld (yes, I play the drums).
--SSP, WiredNY and ArchBoston are my main architecture sites.
--TU (www.timesunion.com) (Albany's Times Union), Boston (www.boston.com/news/local/)('s Globe), and the NYT (www.nytimes.com) take care of my news needs.
--ESPN (espn.go.com) takes care of my sports needs.
--IS (www.imageshack.us) (Imageshack) and Flickr (www.flickr.com) take care of my photography needs.
--Wikimapia (www.wikimapia.org) is just damn interesting.
--Autoblog (www.autoblog.com) satisfies my car news needs.
--And then there's the social networking duo of MySpace and Facebook to keep in touch with friends and fellow musicians.

Oh, and Yahoo! is my homepage.
