OneNote, all the way. I "switched" to Evernote when it was in beta, and while the text-in-photo stuff is cool, it really doesn't offer me all the stuff OneNote does, so I switched back.

I use AAC (Nero m4a) at approx 200-256 vbr for iPod use, which is good enough for headphone and tethered listening. Also, all my CDs were converted to Flacs before being stored away in a box in the attic.

I don't understand though. With my mouse, I click the mousewheel. Then take my finger off the mousewheel and move the mouse up and down to scroll up and down. Click the wheel again to go back to normal. Easier than rolling the clickwheel or pulling the side-bar. And that just happened when I installed Vista, I didn't…

I use the Gmail web interface, which gives you a snippet view of the email. If the email is a one-liner, you can usually read most of it without opening the actual email.

my mouse does this anyway, in any app. Click the scroll-wheel and move up or down.

yeah, Knol looks nice, but people are used to Wikis now. They should have called it Knolwiki or something.. ach no, that's silly.. wikiknol.. kniki?

I used to use XP manager/Vista manager, until a Lifehacker comment pointed me to Glary. Been using it for a while and it does a fine job : if you use Windows, use this (worth it for the reg cleaner alone)

@zirkus: try Handbrake for DVDs, Super for web videos.

Handbrake is like Mary Poppins - slightly quirky, but practically perfect in every way ;)

@lonebannana: there has been a Classic version available since the Classic came out.

@cannonlover: you can use Google Calendar Sync to sync your Outlook cal with Google Cal. Works brilliantly.

hmmm... why don't they just section off the bottom of the screen, where the taskbar is, and minimise to that. You know, like a dock! (Being serious here)

@Talthybius: "Sow off how they're organising their apps.." omg... on the left I have Calendar. I put Facebook on the right, because it worked better than when it was on the bottom under Maps... christ.. (no offence Lh, but even in this geeky world you are getting a bit TOO geeky even for this geek)

I just use the Password Hasher plugin for Firefox. (Passwords generated by PH are then copied and stored in my USB Keepass, just in case).

@Talthybius: I kind of agree. Are we going to get an indepth post about each of the 500 apps in the iPhone store? Little tidbits about how to sync up with Google mail, or sync with Outlook, or ordinary GTD stuff is fine, but like.... zzzzzzzzzzzz..

@Jim (The Canuck One): ah, now THAT is cool. You can upload your photos straight from your phone to Facebook, for example, (so you get the broadcast spontaneity), and then use Picnik INSIDE Facebook to fix colour casts etc if you need to. Brilliant. To keep the phone workflow, you either have to edit photos in-phone,…

@bronskrat: that's how to make it LOOK like a Mac. Doesn't run like a Mac, anyone who thinks that hasn't actually used a Mac. Go Hackintosh or buy a Mac. Mac skins are so 2002.

Microsoft's flagship product - THEY should fix it, and fix it asap.

@VillageHero: Yeah, and it's old software now. The faq state "it will be really show on 3 meg camera images" - implying that - "it is for 640x480 cam pics, not massive 3 meg images like you get in DSLRs... so don't use it on them.." Except my phone as a 3 mpx camera, most of them are do days, so it would take forever.

@SpringsteenFan: why not just rip them into h264 in the first place? I'm not being funny, but I don't get these calls for DivX/Xvid. if you've invested megabucks in an iPod/iPhone/AppleTV, then why would you encode to an unsupported format? Handbrake does this with one-click (just choose the appropriate setting).…
