Create seperate toolbars in Windows 7 (left, right, top of screen)

2 comments

In Windows XP it was easy to add toolbars to the top/left/right side of your screen. Just drag a folder onto the edge of the screen and voila, your toolbar was there.

The second link is a lovely review of the Olympus E-PL2, checkout the nice photography in the review :-). It’s a pleasant change from the regular dpreview style review!

Welcome to this world

This week Samantha and I welcomed a beautiful baby girl into this world. She’s the most precious and adorable thing I’ve ever seen. You always hear “nothing can prepare you for having a baby”. I have to agree, because I’ve hardly ever had as exciting of a week as this week. Nothing could have prepared me for all the joy, concern and love that was involved with having a baby. This was just the first week, I can’t imagine all
