A long-time standby in the productivity realm, a tickler file is a reminder system intended to act as an adjunct to your regular calendaring and scheduling system. Although there are several different kinds of tickler file, the most well-known (thanks largely to David Allen’s Getting Things Done and Merlin Mann’s 43 Folders) is the 43-folders system, with 31 numbered “day” folders and 12 labeled with the months of the year. The idea is quite simple: ...

When it’s been a long day at work and you’re sapped of any energy you require to pack up your belongings and scurry home, you’ll need to facilitate the process. A briefcase doesn’t come close to fitting your whole workstation in it like the Cyber Box does. It’s a cubicle on the move that, when on your way out, forces you to take the elevator. Designer Jacky Nicolas wanted to give workers a way to ...

Just last week, we brought to you a mobile, ergonomic workstation that could be compacted in to one unit. Following closely on its heels, we have the Cyber Box. The trend of present day’s workstations is moving on wheels, literally. And to call off the day’s work, users can simply close down their office into a well-designed structure. Designer Jacky Nicolas too has focused on these two elements and fabricated the Cyber Box. Since we ...

The Hidden Radio concept by John Van Den Nieuwenhuizen is all good if you know how to work a knob. By pulling the cap up, the user proportionately increases the volume. Twisting the cap tunes the radio and that blinking LED gets brighter as you climb into higher frequencies. I like that it doesn’t look like a radio but what’s wrong with a normal dial?

Filed under: Business, Internet, Office, Web servicesAs usual, TechCrunch makes a good point about Zoho calling their offerings "still a bit all over the place." But the fact that Zoho now has over one million users and just launched Zoho Docs bodes well for the company (and the still-nascent online business suite business at large). Zoho Docs integrates Writer, Sheet and Show, allows some version controls, more organization features and access control lists. That's a ...

在本地软件选择打开某个文件,或是在浏览器中选择上传文件时,文件选择窗口的左侧都会有默认的 5 个快捷方式,指向预设的 5 个系统文件夹,方便快速定位。 可是我们的目的文件,往往并不保存在这些系统文件夹中,而是另外有一个专用的文件夹。如果能把这个文件夹放在文件选择窗口左侧,每次选择文件时,都能快速定位,岂不妙哉? Places Bar Editor 就能帮助你实现这一功能。简单易用,下面就是软件主界面及效果预览—— 大家应该也看到了,在 Places Bar Editor 主界面,还有一个 Office 标签卡。在那里可以设置 Office “打开-保存”窗口中的预设文件夹。 点击下载 | 来自网生代 | 官方网站 © LiGht for 网生代, 2008. | Permalink | No comment | Add to del.icio.us | Tags: Office, 快捷方式, 文件夹 相关日志: Wizmo - 为系统操作添加快捷方式 (7) Visual Subst:将文件夹虚拟成硬盘分区 (3) NexusFile - 高效的 Windows 文件管理器 (10) iColorFolder——文件夹图标美化 (6) 8款精心挑选的强大的资源管理器插件 (19) 280Slides - 幻灯片在线制作工具 (4)

Designed for creative professionals to store materials, notes, and tools underneath, the top surface upsets our often too linear thinking. Esoteric design concepts aside, the utility of the table’s network of caging just begs to be filled with a trove of modern gadgets, if not the tangle of cords that go with them. Designer: ...
