Desktop De-clutter

I am re-organizing my life and it starts with my desktop.

It has come to my attention that over 90 percent of my desktop shortcuts and icons are  useless, my taskbar and start menu are redundant. So i decided to uninstall some of them and deleted shortcuts I seldom use, retaining the most used programs. And this is what I came up with

Just a recycle bin and my broadband mobile connections.

I chose the programs I use daily and place them on my taskbar for ease of access. I wanted to put some more but I don’t want my taskbar to look like that of a Mac so I pinned them on my start menu instead.

So yeah I’m a man of simple wants and needs.

Is your station in a compromising position? Is your back exposed to the whole world (in my case office) which also means your monitor is wide open to receive the stares of busybodies passing behind you and ready to report to the boss that you are “unproductive” and “distracted” when they see a hint that your are not reading your email or working on an excel file? Most importantly are you only allowed “limited” (read: nil) time to browse the internet save for looking up some obscure cities and google maps looking for unknown hotels?

Well, we are in the same position, and if you are reading this, I might just change your boring office life.

I just devised a way how blend my online life and my work. Nope, its not a faster version of ALT + TAB. There are only 4 steps

1. Install Google Chrome

 

2. Open your email / outlook

3. Choose a Chrome Theme that will blend to your email

 

4. Minimize and layover to fit in your reading panel
