for RL things... I tend to use rocket fuel to launch them;
for software... I use bbLean and the hotkey plugins :]-scancode (September 19, 2007, 12:40 PM)
What is even funnier about some posts in this thread is that back then Google was definitely the Evil Empire to all there in Opera land! A simple request by any user there was enough to bring the wrath of every Opera faithful - especially the moderators - because Google was seen as even a bigger threat to personal freedom and privacy than Microsoft! I saw posts there that were horribly vitriolic by long-standing members. Yet when a "rebellious poster" got even a little sarcastic he/she would be immediately banned.
Now they have a $50 M deal with Google? I'm just about rolling around laughing!!-J-Mac (September 08, 2007, 06:38 PM)
Those of us who use the web all day long, every day, probably have signed up for at least a couple dozen different information services, all with different login information, all storing different information for us.
We might have a to-do manager, a contact manager, a bookmarking service, a project management service, a wiki, multiple email accounts, lists, multiple online documents, or one of the many other services available for managing our information.
Trouble is, that can make things a bit disorganized. Our information is spread through various sites and services, some of which we use infrequently. We might not remember where everything is, and even if we do, it takes a minute or so to locate it, login, and access the information.
You can simplify this and keep yourself organized in one simple step: keep all your information in one place.
It doesn’t matter where that place is, as long as it works well for you and you use it regularly. But just this single act will keep all your information at your fingertips, and keep you organized in a way you may never have been before.
So how do you do it? Here are some suggestions:
1. Pick a location. There are many places you could use for your info. Google Docs, a wiki that you can keep on your own server or on a flash drive, Backpack, a plain old paper notebook, a binder, any list service, an email account, a secure web site, Evernote, Google Notebook, a text file. Actually, any place you can store info works … just choose one that works well for you. I recommend something searchable, and if you use multiple computers, something online.
try moving the taskbar to the left hand side, make it wider, then make the background transparent (would need tool). then use auto-tile :) comes close i think.-justice (August 31, 2007, 05:38 AM)
How about an app that would run in the systray and each time a window would open it would Auto-Tile, (auto fit) the new window with all of the currently open windows. So with each new opened window all of the other windows are still visible, but smaller of course, and re-tiled so that they all fit the screen.
Probably the snarkiest part would be to decide which method to tile, ...-thefritz_j (July 19, 2007, 06:06 PM)
