Set the Topsites page as your homepage in Safari 4

I really like the topsites feature in Safari 4 and I always find myself going there first when I open my browser. I figured out you can actually set the topsites page as your homepage. For me this is a great time saver.

To set the topsites page as your homepage go to the Safari Preferences, select the General tab and then enter topsites:// in the Home Page entry. Now when you open Safari you'll be taking to the topsites page first.
