If you’re not a big fan of the new speed dial tab in the newest version of Firefox, Mozilla makes it easy to customize the page to load any site of your choosing with a simple edit to the about:config file.
To create a custom new tab page you just need to edit one file and it’s easy to do:
- Go to advanced preferences entering about:config in the location bar
- Search for preference browser.newtab.url
- Double-click on it and enter the web address (URL) of the page you want to load (like https://google.com, a custom portal, your Facebook profile, etc.), or to set a blank page, enter about:blank.
When you’re done the speed dial will be gone and you’ll have instant access to whichever site you typically open a new tab to.

I was born in Belize City, Belize on Sept. 01, 1975 and raised in the beautiful town of San Ignacio, Cayo; both places in the Central American Country of Belize. Hence the name Cayo Buay, it is Kriol for Boy from Cayo.
Raised in a single mother home with 8 children, I learnt from a tender age that you can't always have what you want and you always have to work hard for what you get. As a young lad I remember going to my Granddad's farm to help as we could. CB has been working since Std 6 (8th Grade).
I worked in the Architecture and Construction field while I lived in Belize and worked on many projects ranging from residential to Commercial with the most notable being the extension to the PGIA (Philip Goldson International Airport).
I know about hard life and how to make a lot out of a little. But that was then, today I am a happily married man and father of a wonderful son who I am doing my utmost best to raise the right way.
