We have a large wallpaper gallery here and since we've been focusing on getting more content added, I was wondering how you use some of these. Specifically, do you take a desktop wallpaper and use it as the wallpaper on your mobile device such as a phone or tablet? On most of my mobile devices I typically just use a photo from my photo album, but I have used downloaded wallpapers before.
We're just about a week away from the official start of Fall, and if you are someone who likes to match your desktop with the season, now is a fantastic time to get started!

In one of my last blogs , I downloaded and tried out ObjectBar on my Windows 10 laptop. It was a fun experiment, and I enjoyed reading your comments on whether we should try to bring back ObjectBar.

RightClick was first released somewhere around 2005, and was made in order to let Windows XP users greatly enhance the right-cli...
Among one of the many things COVID has brought us is the cancellation of much needed vacations across the world. It's destroyed a great deal of the travel industry, and things like theme parks are just starting to reopen. One of my personal favorites, the cruise industry, has barely started to come back and normal cruising won't resume probably until well into next year. We have had 3 out of the 4 scheduled cruises this year cancelled, with only one of those not related to COVID. At this poin...
