If you visit Facebook frequently, make Facebook your homepage. Instead of typing Facebook's URL into your browser's address bar every time, or clicking on a Facebook button, have your browser automatically go to Facebook once it's open. With one change to your browser's settings, you can have Facebook load as your homepage.
