Performance tip for Ubuntu Edgy and Feisty users
One user suggested the following tip to improve the applications launch performance.
$ sudo gedit /etc/hosts
You should see something like this:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 user
(and if your in Feisty, some lines about IPV6 also)
Now, edit to:
127.0.0.1 localhost user
127.0.1.1 user
(Replace “user” with your hostname).
Save and exit the file.
Now your applications launch should improve.
Currently There are two bugs filed against this you can check here and here .

Set Your Firefox Homepage to Multiple Tabs
With this tiny Firefox feature, you will be able to set your default homepage to multiple pages which will open in different tabs. All you have to do is add this symbol, “|”, in between your websites. This is how it should look…
“www.digg.com|www.espn.com|www.facebook.com”
You can add as many or as little number of sites as you would like.
This will also go into effect whenever you hit the home button on your browser. Some of you might have already known about this, but it’s news to me.
