A while ago (in May!), I posted about using Taskbar Shuffle to rearrange the icons in your Windows taskbar. This is handy when I have lots of windows open, and I want a couple of them to be readily available.
If I drag their icons to the far left of the Windows Taskbar, they’re easier for me to find when I need to access those windows.
Yesterday, Lifehacker posted an article about Taskix, which is another tool for rearranging taskbar icons. Apparently it’s much smaller than Taskbar Shuffle, and very similar in functionality.
I’ve installed it, and it’s working very smoothly, with no noticeable difference from Taskbar Shuffle.
You can download Taskix for 32-bit or 64-bit systems, then use it to rearrange or close the windows icons on your taskbar.
Simply drag a Window icon to a different position on the toolbar, and release it to place it in the new spot. Or, point to an icon and click the mouse wheel to close that window.
Jon, which plugin do you use for follow up comments? And who’s selling the Orthodox Icons? Me?
Of course, you probably won’t see this comment, since I don’t have the follow up comments plugin.
I subscribe to the RSS feed for the comments.
Thanks Dick, that’s how I see the comments on your site.
I’ve added the Notify Followup plugin though, so maybe that’ll help the people who don’t want to subscribe to the comments feed.
Oh so *you’re* the other one subscribed to my comments RSS feed. Tell me, have you noticed that the comments feed doesn’t get updated unless there’s a new post? I was wondering if that was a Bloglines problem or a WordPress problem.
Dick, I hadn’t noticed that — I just read them when they appear in Google reader, about once a day.
My comments feed is only updated once a day too, IIRC.
I put my taskbar on the right hand side some time ago. For some reason I can’t remember I chose the right side of the screen rather than the left. Perhaps to keep the tray closer to where I was used to it?
Anyway, the other benefit of the taskbar on the side of the screen is that it expands to show the time, day of week and date in the tray – not just the time.
