That's a good point, but I'm looking for something more. I personally never use the Home key because it depends on the keyboard (e.g. on Mac laptops you'd need two hands) and even worse, it depends on focus. If you're focused on the address bar or a text-entry field, Home/End won't (always) scroll the page. Using the scrollbar is a good idea, and can even be Fitt's compliant. That said, good design is in part about meeting users' expectations for common UI elements, and "go to top" widgets on some long pages are common enough to almost be considered expected. So we can rephrase the question as, "If you're going to implement 'Go to top' links at all, what's the recommended way of doing it?"
