How to change the location of My Documents folder in XP
Low disk space… Clean up wizard… Notifications after every 5 minutes… Now, this is really getting on my nerves! Well, it’s like this that I store all my downloaded files (temporarily, not permanently!), all sorts of images, wallpapers, game saves, backup data etc. in My Documents. And now the folder size is around 9-10GB (excluding all the installed stuff, windows files and hundreds of folders).
I’m just too lazy to clean all that :P I guess, I’ll only learn when my HDD will crash and I’ll loose everything (I hope not!). Finally I’ve found how to move my entire My Documents to some other drive. It’s very very, very easy to do. If you already know that, just don’t make fun of me :/ .
How to backup your Firefox profile regularly
A few days ago, I did a post telling you two ways to backup your profile. But as you do know that I’m very lazy in everything, I think this manual way uses a lot of my energy :P .

Future iPhone Owners Userbar
Haven’t got your iPhone yet? Still waiting.. No problem. I have found a very nice tag for those who are still waiting to get their hands on the iPhone. You can use this tag on other bulletin boards, use it as a signature in your emails or put it up on your blog to let other’s know that soon you will also be an owner of iPhone! :)
To save the tag (user bar), for IE users, right-click on the image and select Save Picture As. And as for the Firefox users, right-click on the image and select Save Image As.
Please do not link to this image directly. Save the image on your PC and upload it on your own server or where you want to upload it. Or if you don’t know where to upload, you can use any of the free image hosts mentioned here.
