Sweet! Does it replace that annoying "maximize window" button with "zoom window"? :-} Seriously, as solid as OSX is under the hood I always found the interface a little too wrapped up in design "philosophy". "Bob", talking paperclips and search puppies none withstanding, Windows XP look and feel isn't something I have…

I don't see the advantage of the clever graphical gymnastics involved. My local hardware store puts out a freebie business-card sized calendar, in plain-old one-year calendar format, using *one* side of the card, with plenty of room for their name/address/phone.

Hmmm...there's something about printing a document without even looking at it on screen first that doesn't strike me as very tree-friendly.

Sounds good, but doesn't this take away ad revenue from tinyurl.com? They only get paid when someone visits the site to make the URL, right?

During your next trip to IKEA grab one of those free one meter paper tape measures, fold it up, and put it in your wallet. They're labeled in both Metric and English.

This is reminiscent of how soft contact lenses work:

A similar trick to open files or programs as some else (say you need to need to log in as an Administrator to alter some files) is:
