Productivity Tip - Use Zonesize from DonationCoder
There are often times when you need to have 2 or more windows displayed on the same screen where you are using both programs at once. For instance you may be viewing a browser window while writing to another document. In these situations you may also want to drag and drop text or graphics from one window to the other. Zonesize allows you to have a predefined set of window sizes or zones to suit your working pattern.

Curator Defense Downloadable Free Game

05_l.jpg
My younger brother suggests Curator Defense - looks pretty silly to me :)

Really nice free downloadable game for windows, in the genre where you choose and place automated defenses to defend a swarm of invaders.

This game gets my vote as best casual game of the year (even though it is from 2005 - it's so good i vote for it in 2006!)
