Since going to a two monitor setup – the one thing I have the most trouble with us getting all my windows arranged in a way that I like. You’d think with all the extra screen real estate that would be easy, right? Wrong. Thankfully GridMove is here to save my day. This desktop window manager will let you organize all the open windows on your desktop in just a couple of seconds.

Efficient Sticky Notes
I love to check out and review sticky note programs. I am a ‘bit of an organizational nut, so anytime somebody sends me a suggestion of a new sticky note program I have to check out – I jump at the chance to download it. Efficient Sticky Notes is another great way to toss out the random sheets of paper you jot things on and start brining your personal notes to your desktop.
Screenr Innovations
The last time I took a look at Screenr, I was really impressed. They make recording a quick screencast really simple and as of late, they have made some renovations to turn a good service into a really great one. I thought I would take a few minutes out to let you know what new Screenr features I am happy to see.
Gallery of Other People’s Desks
It might sound a little strange to say it out loud, but I like to see pictures of other people’s desks. Thankfully though, this is the Internet – where people have other odd traits like odd obsessions with furry anime characters – so when you stop and think about it, checking out other people’s desk setups might not be that odd. Deskography is a website dedicated to showing the world where you work and has tons of interesting desktop setups that might even inspire you to change your own corner nook around a little ‘bit.
Creeper Wallpaper
After playing Minecraft for a while, you quickly learn that the scariest thing you can encounter is a Creeper.
Mortal Kombat HD Wallpaper
Ever wake up with the urge to freeze somebody and then upcut them over and over again? I did. Rather than trying to do the act I previously mentioned, I decided to feed my urges with some Mortal Kombat wallpaper. This fantastic wallpaper I found takes the old Mortal Kombat dragon logo and gives it a modern and polished update.
Like it? You can grab it from here. You also have the option to download it in the following sizes: 1280×800, 1440×900, 1680×1050, or 1920×1200.
Quicker Flickr Picture Uploading
Flickr is a great way to share your photos online, but using the browser tools might seem a little cumbersome to some people out there. If you want to upload photos directly from your PC to Flickr with only a few clicks in between, then you need the Flickr Uploadr.
Bring Facebook to the Desktop
Need to be able to keep a closer eye on your Facebook activity? If browsing Facebook via the browser is not enough for you and you need more check out the Facebook Desktop client. This unofficial Windows download will keep Facebook alive 24/7 in your windows task bar.
Gmail Alerts Done Right
Scott’s Gmail Alert might be one of the nicest little Gmail monitor programs you can find on Windows. With it, you can always stay on top of your most recent Gmail emails that have come in, and get access to tons of other great features.
The main job of this excellent little program is to monitor any number of Gmail inboxes and labels. You can customize each account with individual colors and sounds too. You can also instantly rely to emails, without even having to open your web browser. It is also fully compatible with Google Apps and the standard free Gmail e-mail accounts too.
The features do not stop there. You can also use it to monitor multiple Google Talk accounts, receive desktop alerts for calendar events, get the latest Google news feeds or stay up to date with the current weather conditions. Any RSS feed can also be directly plugged into Scott’s Gmail Alert, for easy access to your favorite website stories.
Your registration (which is only $3) will unlock support for monitoring an unlimited number of Gmail accounts, the Calendar functions and RSS feed monitoring.
Go give it a shot – I can promise you that you will not find another Gmail monitoring program that does so much.
