Not sure if you could do this before in Leopard, but you can also hop to items in Stacks by typing the first letter of the name. (For example, when I've got the Applications Stack extended, tapping the U key selects the Utilities folder.) Hit play on the screencast here to see this in action.

@infmom: The Utili-key has been a lifesaver of mine in many cases where I just needed to remove a couple screws but didn't have a smaller screwdriver on-hand, or needed to quickly cut something. But yes, you're essentially putting torque on the side of a blade, so it's not exactly a "safe" tool. I just enjoy that it…

@AtomFury: I'd suggest the carabiner clip solution Adam uses, though I'd also suggest looking for a specific brand of drive that comes with a small key ring and using a smaller carabiner clip. Then you can clip it on a belt loop or belt, backpack, etc. and have it with you at all times.

@Bryan Petzinger: Add this to the equation and I think this is an intelligent hack. Without this, I could see getting scratched and/or poked quite often by this kind of contraption. The ends of those are intended to be hidden, not poking out into the air like that, so they're not finished off in any way and can be…

@FabianArmstrong: I think you're misunderstanding the concept here... It's not that the glass reflects the light from the mouse, it's that it doesn't, whereas the tint DOES reflect the light.

@cubexombi: I'd be a little apprehensive of sliding a mouse over etched glass, unless you mean doing it to the underside of the glass. Though, I don't know much about etching, maybe there is a way to smooth it out afterward? I know that etched glass has a texture similar to stone and would probably scratch the hell…

@Anonymous816435: It's easier to hit Caps Lock+Tab, Caps Lock+T, or Caps Lock+W than Ctrl+Tab, Ctrl+T, or Ctrl+W. I believe that was Michael Boland's point. Moves the entire hand higher, rather than stretching that pinky. ;)

@bill cant fart: I do, mainly in graphic design work. Sure, there are usually settings in my programs to capitalize and/or uncapitalize words or paragraphs, but if I know it'll be in all caps I might as well type it that way to begin with. Even if I don't like people putting things like "ABSOLUTELY FREE!!!!!"…

@Samu Wade: Thanks for the links, though this does exactly what I need to. I always open my Finder windows from one of, like, 5 places so as long as I open them, "maximize" them, then close them, they'll always open filling the screen, which is preferred.

@McWhammer: It runs silently, you don't have anything showing up. Try hitting the zoom button on a Finder window. ;)

I was just searching for this the other day, mainly for the Finder. I keep everything in either lists or column view, and it just doesn't make sense for the window to not fill the entire screen rather than just go the width of the furthest column in the lists view, then stop. Especially if I want to add an item to…

I do have to think that the margin for this being useful would be pretty small... When I go to call a customer at work, for instance, the most I'll check my e-mail for is their phone number in the signature. If I already have it, then I'm already calling. Why go to my computer first?

I think it's interesting to note that these companies keep closing off doors with third party apps, and it causes people to stop using the service. It almost seems like these companies don't want you using the service. It's likely that they don't make as much money on that type of content, so they'd rather have…

As bad a decision as I think Hulu was forced to make with regards to Boxee, it is still a great service. The few times I've seen this option I've immediately picked the option to view a longer up-front commercial, then just watch the show. The main reason being that most of the sponsors only have one commercial, and…

@skaorsk8: If those are the only places you want to watch video, then you wouldn't want this. For others, such as myself, who are perfectly happy watching these on the computer while browsing the web or playing random casual games, this is significantly better than the streaming video [nbc.com] and other network…

@ThickSkinned: That's the Videora program mrsilver was referring to originally. I actually use that same method for the "click it and forget it" simplicity. I don't have to add 300 files to a queue, I just click "one-click convert" select the files, and come back later. That's my only issue with Handbrake, for…

@OptionalJoystick: Agreed. I have yet to have a positive experience with OpenOffice.org. I only use the portable version because of a lack of alternatives in the portable app world.

@Freezen: Also, the likelyhood of someone actually picking up a proper square driver that would work in the standard Robertson screws is pretty low, so even if they were tampered with, it should be obvious by the stripped out edges.

@SWAK_GitEmSteveDave loves->★: @drjayphd: I'm pretty sure that Jose is referring to www.willitblend.com. I found it an amusing reference.

@monkeyboy: If your average is about $10 a movie, though, it may be cheaper to rent them at a local video rental place. I think that's the main point of this Feedflix service. Making sure you're not paying $10 per rental when there are cheaper options available.
