You can customise Confluence by choosing your site preferences — home page, language and timezone.
To edit your user preferences,
-
Go to the 'Preferences' view for your user profile. To do this:
- Log in to Confluence, if you have not already done so.
- Go to your name at the top of the page. (This is the 'User' menu. A dropdown list will appear when your cursor hovers over the 'User' menu.)
- Select 'Preferences' from the dropdown list. The 'Preferences' view will open.
- Click the 'Edit Profile' tab.
- In the left-hand column, click the 'General' link under 'Preferences'.
- Choose your preferences in the form that is displayed:
- Site Homepage — choose the page that you would like to see whenever you log in to Confluence.
- Preferred Language — choose your language.
- Time zone — choose your time zone.
- Click 'Save' to save your changes.

Thanks for your first hint, however it was not precisely what I meant. I would like users to autocreate personal space upon first login. And the autocreated space should of course be pretty much predefined by admins so that they all look a bit more similar, as suggested in my second part.
I have now created this as an issue here: http://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-12678
