The simplest home page would be on the computer you use most often - and it would have a counterpart o some accessible website such as google or blogspot.
That simple home page would have the links that you rely on to get things done - and the ability to hold onto requests that you make when off-line or when a site is down.
Tiddlywiki is one such option, but for many people it is too complex. It is not really what you want for your young child's netbook or tablet.
An "aule" is an entryway or hallway or hall: a starting point, if you will.
My preferred aule are in Curl from www.curl.com but aule pages can be very useful when built in simple HTML or in HTML+JavaScript.
