System and method for time based home page selection

摘要

A system and method is provided for selecting a home page for a browser based upon the time of day and day of week. In addition, a system and method is provided for selecting the home page based upon the network to which the user is connected. In one embodiment, the home page data is stored on nonvolatile storage accessible from the client's computer system and retrieved from such nonvolatile storage. In another embodiment, each of the client's computer systems has a home page identifier directed to a home page redirector web site. The home page redirector web site receives identification data from the client. The home page redirector retrieves home page web data corresponding to the client's preferences from its nonvolatile storage area, and redirects the client computer system to a different home page address based upon the time of day and/or client network connection data.
