I could set a local file as my startpage but I really disliked the link coming as "file:///". While searching for ways to do this - somebody suggested to start a local server to serve the startpage. So I made a small python script after some Google to start a local server at port 8000(I'll post the python code later when I'm home. It simply used httpd server). Then I made the startpage it was serving as my home tab in Firefox. Finally I added the command to startup applications in my Ubuntu installation to make sure the server gets started after the boot-up.

May I ask what this was?
