My OCD dreams have come true

Lots of things to blog today, but I shall do them as separate posts. I like to keep things tidy, as you shall see.

Which leads me on (almost as if I had planned this post) to say I'm terribly excited! In a rather geeky and pointless way, but excited nonetheless.

Basically, when I'm at work, I have a particular order that I open my applications in and they MUST stay in that order otherwise I get annoyed. It goes:

• Outlook
• Internet Explorer
• Flock
• Dreamweaver
• Windows Explorer
• TweetDeck (which runs in the background anyway)

These I keep open all day. However, it doesn't take much for my order to be upset - accidentally closing a window, something crashing, or installing something that insists an application be closed (usually IE). And although I've tried to tolerate them in a different order, I usually end up closing everything and starting again just to keep it neat.

But now I no longer need to because I've found a cute little programme called Taskbar Shuffle! It runs in the background and means I can drag my windows around on the taskbar and put them wherever I want. I can't believe I haven't found it before!

So you see, very geeky, very pointless, and yet I'm rather more pleased than I should be because suddenly something in life got easier.

I'm a man of simple pleasures. And compulsive neatness.
