Every time you open your browser, it automatically opens to a particular web page. You can change this page so that you see what you want to see when your browser opens.
In future articles I will show you how to easily make a "Resource Website" for your company which can be hosted on your own computer or on your network, and which can provide valuable current information to your employees.
The value of setting a browser home page to this resource site, is that your co-workers can have the latest company information on their screen just by starting their browser. It can contain links, images, and downloads just like a web-based site. And you can do it yourself!
First, let's set the browser: Mozilla Firefox. Other browsers should configure similarly.
How To…
Set your browser home page to an Internal Resource Website
Open Mozilla Firefox
At top: Tools / Options / General
Paste the link where it says "Location(s):"
Click "OK"
You must close and reopen Moxilla Firefox in order for settings to take place.
Now, every time you open your browser, your internal resource website will appear on the screen. Next chapter: how to easily build the site.
