Did you know you could save all open documents by just holding down the shift key when selecting the File menu? Yeah, Save turns into Save All (okay not in Word 2007 it appears)! Web Worker Daily has six more tips in their article:
Many of us writerly types spend a lot of time in Microsoft […]
I talked about the Vista Battery Saver tool in May when it was first launched in beta. I tried it for a little while, but I think something about my machine didn’t like it. Doesn’t really matter though, because everyone else liked it so much so that it’s been release as an open-source app:

This is not the news or rumour I wanted to read this week:
Valleywag reports that “Microsoft has apparently told executives at one of the world’s largest PC makers not to expect a formal release of Windows Vista SP1 — the first major set of upgrades and bug fixes to its Vista operating system — until […]
I figured enough of you might have been driven nuts by this new “feature” in Vista that I’d give you the meat of the article in the title.
