Lifehack.org has a great article on how Open Source concepts could be applied to areas outside of software development. I’ve shared their thoughts on Education for quite a while, but their thoughts on Money, Corporations, and Entertainment were particularly new and interesting.

I’ve just spent some time reviewing the Google Sightseeing site. It’s a site where people share interesting sites found using Google Earth and Google Maps. I just added their RSS feed to my Google Reader.
There’s a whole section on the new Google Streetview feature that shows some of the more surprising images captured. They also show quite a few aircraft, famous and large houses, animals. All very amazing.

This tip will allow you to launch directly into any of your favorite folders from the Windows TaskBar. This is one of my favorite time savers.
Make sure the Lock Toolbars option is not selected. Right click on an open spot on the Taskbar and un-select the Lock Toolbars option if it is selected.
Make a desktop folder by right clicking on any open spot on the desktop, select “New”, and then “Folder”. Give it a short but meaningful name. I have one at work called “Clients”.
Collect shortcuts for your favorite folders and place them in this new folder. To make a shortcut of a folder, right click the folder and select “Create Shortcut”. Drag these shortcuts into your folder.
Add this folder to your TaskBar as a new Toolbar. Do this by right clicking on an open spot on the taskbar, select “Toolbars”, select “New Toolbar…”, find your new folder listed under the Desktop, click OK.
Arrange your Taskbar by dragging sections where desired. I like my Folders to be on the right next to where the time is displayed. If some of the shortcuts in your folder are showing in the Taskbar, drag the seperator bar over to the right so that only the folder name appears. To access a folder, click on the >> next to the folder name and the folders will do a drop down (or drop up from the bottom) and you can select them from there.
