Firefox: Open Multiple Home Pages

Just about anyone who uses a browser, generally has a favorite web page selected as their default home page when they open up this application. Firefox has a cool little trick that you might not know about. It can open multiple default home pages when the browser is first opened, all you have to do is separate each URL with a pipe ("|").

For example:
http://www.google.com | http://yahoo.com

To set the home page in Firefox (I am assuming you already have it open):
  • From the Tools menu, select Options...
  • In the Location(s) field, enter the URLs you want to use and separate them with a "|" (no quotes).
  • Press the OK button when done
