If you're anything like me then there are are just a few folders on your Windows computer that you are always accessing. I used to temporarily store things on my desktop because that was the easiest thing to do.

One of Google Calendar's biggest downfalls is that they haven't created a task manager. Calendars and task managers always go hand-in-hand so I don't know what is holding Google back from integrating one into their calendar service.

Many of us have been sitting tight waiting for the release of the Optimus Keyboard. It is the keyboard that will be completely made up of OLED keys which means you can control the "image" that appears an every key.

OpenOffice.org 2.1 RC1 has been released and is calling your name. This new version is scheduled for release in about two-weeks (December 12) and the goal of 2.1 is to support extensions (none have been developed at this point). OpenOffice.org 2.0.4 supported non-code extensions which are more commonly referred to as templates but the "real" extensions should be usable in 2.1.

 Are you ever looking for that perfect quote but have a hard time finding something to fit the situation. Maybe you're trying to prove a point, do some research, or be a smart alec...doesn't matter because Quotiki will help you.

Looking for a good laugh today? I wasn't until I came across two sites that are just hilarious. The second one that I'll mention is a little funnier than the first but they are both sure to give you a chuckle.

Sometimes there is a key on your keyboard that just doesn't do what you want it to. Unfortunately you can't configure what each key does without the help of an external application. Thank goodness that the program  needed to change the settings is free and really easy to use.

Today is Cyber Monday and that means it is time for you to get some great deals on the Internet. The Google Blog just announced the special deal that they are doing with select merchants where you can receive $20 off if you purchase more than $50 in products and you pay using Google Checkout. It is undoubtedly a great deal but I was only able to find Buy.com and Starbucks offering that discount.

Pocket PC's are wonderful little handheld computers but they cost so much that the thought of having to buy software is almost frightening. You don't have to worry because there are a few great sites that are dedicated only to Pocket PC freeware so that you can get stuff done without pulling out your pocket book.

The chances of coming across celebrities and the world famous while traveling by air  are getting slimmer as more of these people opt for their own luxury private jet.  Last week we talked about luxury yachts, which are probably owned by the same crowd that own the world's most expensive jets! Prices can run well into the tens of millions with amenities most of us could only dream of, like gold-plated bathroom fixtures, hand-woven carpet, original artwork, etc.

I was just over at the Picasa Beta homepage and noticed that they released a new version last week. Looks like they have been working on compatibility with other software like Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Vista:

Are you wondering how far a certain day is away from right now or maybe you want to add/subtract some time from a date? I was just looking for a converter to do just that and I found OnlineConversions.com.

Gickr is a very creative service because it lets you easily create animated GIF's from any photos in your Flickr account. Actually, it doesn't even have to be from your Flickr account because the animated GIF I put together to the right was done just by searching for "dual monitors" from all of Flickr.

Here is your week in review with Sunday's Summary! If you missed something, check it out.

Microsoft has really out done themselves this time. Out of all the companies in the world leave it to Microsoft to predict your future with Zoltar...and surprisingly they developed it to be very amusing.

I'm not sure if you have ever heard of Pinger before but it is an amazing new service that was just started a short while ago. It definitely reminds me of the voicemail feature that most cellphones come with but it goes way beyond that by making it feel more like an email system. You can send, reply, and forward (even to more than one person) a message in a matter of seconds.

While it may be near impossible to achieve complete laptop security, there are lots of preventative measures that you can take.  Laptops appear to be a magnet for thieves who just can't wait to get their hands on one. Here are a few anti-theft protection ideas for your laptop and accessories.

I just found a site called Free Layouts that has a lot of amazingly useful tools for Web developers. The selection of tools and templates are among the best that I have seen so I highly recommend that you bookmark this if you do, or plan to, create a website.

Google just released an easy way to access your recent documents that you have created using their Docs & Spreadsheets service. It can now be done using your Google Personalized Homepage and this great gadget.

When people take photos with their cameraphones it is always pretty obvious. The low-quality and often useless photos that result from a cameraphone will hopefully become a thing of the past and maybe even sooner than expected.
