It’s a new year, and we’re all getting just a little bit older. As we approach the end of civilization this year, take some time to geekily (geekishly?) walk down memory lane and reboot a bunch of old operating systems. You know, just for funsies.

A Bit of Nostalgia
Interesting in depth article from the Windows 8 design team about the changes/improvements to Windows Explorer that are coming with Windows 8.

The bookmarks bar is a useful browser feature to have quick access to website favorites. Fortunately or unfortunately most browsers use the website title as the title for the favorite link, and this tends to take up a lot of space. Your bookmarks bar probably looks something like this.
Chances are that you have more favorites that you want quick access to, but they get pushed off the bookmarks bar because the titles are too long.
Good news everyone! There is a way to shorten the titles, or in some cases even remove the titles altogether to compact the favorite link, and thus making more room for favorites on the bookmarks bar.

Angry Birds on the Web
Here is your totally time-wasting, useless-knowledge, productivity-killing, knowledge for today. Angry Birds, one of the most popular iOS and Android games, the game which it seems everyone and their grandma has played, and the game until today I had not played, is now available on the web.
You can play it here, chrome.angrybirds.com; but don’t click this link if you plan to get anything done today.
