Anything goes...

CubeDesktop is very cool… and useful!

I attend quite a few Microsoft UK MSDN events and one of the presenters, Mike Taulty, uses a desktop management piece of software called, you guess it, CubeDesktop. It’s caught my eye every time he has presented, as you’ll see from the screenshots (the software in action is far better than these still shots!):

I decided to download a trial copy to have a play for myself, mostly because it looked very cool, but upon actually using this software I have found it incredibly useful, especially since my main computer is a laptop with a screen resolution of 1440 x 900, ok so its not too bad, but if like me you run a lot of applications, it can get cluttered and difficult to locate that particular window using ALT+TAB! CubeDesktop has reduced this “problem”, so now I can have a desktop #1) with my Microsoft Outlook, Windows Live Messenger and general Internet browsing, #2) my Visual Studio, #3) SQL Server Management Studio, #4) Remote Desktop to my virtual server, #5) FTP to the live server.
