For the sake of consistency I tend to have it link to the home page from the home page too. I doubt that this is a big usability problem, but I'm sure that Jakob Nielsen have the statistics to back it up. I think that this might be a thing that have changed since 2003 since people have been more accustomed to this practice. The power of conventions! I use it too sometimes to refresh the home page, mostly on news sites. :-) John: Yes I’ve seen that guideline too.

Jakob Neilsen (who annoys me to no end, but does have a few good points) says "Don't include an active link to the homepage on the homepage" in his 2003 list "The Ten Most Violated Homepage Design Guidelines". Personally, I like the link to always be there. I often click on it even when I know that I'm on the homepage just to be sure :) I’m curious to hear your opinion on linking to the home page from the home page.
