Morning Coffee: why do we assume we only get one homepage?
Why do we assume we only get one homepage? For those willing to explore the potential of their browser, we'd like to show you a little out-of-the-box thinking in the form of Morning Coffee. Though Firefox can set a series of tabs as your "homepage" (select "Use Current Pages" from the preferences menu), this free add-on (shout out to all the free software coders out there) gives you the ability to choose when to open which homepage.

If I wanted to read different stuff on the weekend, I'd probably make a "weekend" folder. Solved again.
The point of having an entire extension for this is... what, exactly?
