i have the same lil routine and i'm guessin plenty of other ppl have their own one too...

i usually check my gmail, which may or may not lead to anandtech depending on subscriptions
then i check my fantasy teams,
then betanews.com and driverheaven.net, in no particular order.
then maybe some local news....

and that's about it... i don't usually browse over to the forums until later in the day... i like to keep it short cause if not i get distracted for ages

just wondering! :)

I have a folder called Morning Group located on my Quick Launch bar. With one click I have all of my sites open up in tabs. :) Inside I have my personal e-mail, RC Nitro Talk, RC Groups, TechIMO, AnandTech, Dilbert and Slashdot.

that's a pretty awesome idea!
i always find myself opening everything in different tabs manually and then browsing one by one from the start :)

Check my emails, check our company's billing system (to see if any new orders, etc came in), make sure the company's servers aren't down, and everything is gravy, then start my day. The computer is usually the first thing I check every morning before getting dressed.
