Google Chrome Home Button

I have been using Google Chrome now for a while and noticed that I did not see a Home Button any where on the tool bar.   I use it so often in other browsers that it was irratating me not to have it.  So I decided to do a little research and found the following (thanks to Google Chrome Help):


Basic browser settings: Home page:

You can set your favorite webpage as your home page. Your home page can open up whenever you start up your browser. And if you add the home page button to the browser toolbar, you can click it at anytime to get back to your home page.





Follow these steps to pick your home page and adjust it settings:
  1. Click the wrench icon wrench icon on the browser toolbar. Mac users: If you don't see the wrench icon, go to the menu bar at the top of your screen and click Chrome.
  2. Select Options (Preferences on a Mac).
  3. Click the Basics tab.
    • Set your home page
      Pick any page you'd like to be your home page in the "Home page" section. You can select "Use the New Tab page" to set the New Tab page as your home page. To use any other page as your home page, select "Open this page" and enter the web address of the page you'd like to use.
    • Add the home button to the browser toolbar
      Want a button on the browser toolbar that you can click to open your home page? The home button isn't shown by default, but you can easily add it by selecting the "Show Home button" checkbox in the "Home page" section. Deselect the checkbox to remove the button.
    • Set your home page as your startup page
      To see your homepage whenever you open Google Chrome, go to the "On startup" section and select "Open the home page."
