Today, I thought I would share some posts around the web from feeds that I am subscribed to.
Is Your Desktop Naked?
This one comes from Mitchellaneous and caught my attention, because like Mitch, I also like a clean desktop. The only difference between mine and his though is that I use gadgets from the Vista Sidebar. But, it’s still clean because I don’t have icons cluttering my desktop.
This is useful if you are working on a project for a client, because whatever you decide to save on the desktop is for that project alone. Then as Mitch said, you can move file(s) to another location when you’re done, or delete if you no longer need the file(s). Great tip.
Photoshop Tutorial: Candy in a Plastic Wrapper
This tutorial comes from Larissa Meek showing us what to use the plastic wrap filter for in Photoshop. I haven’t put her tutorial to the test, but it looks easy to follow. I’d be interested to know if anyone’s used the filter for anything else.

Google Takes Feeds Out of Search Results
I read this great news over at Jeffro2pt0. This is very important to me, because I was starting to consider using another search engine because it annoyed me that every search result included a lot of feeds, rather than the actual content. And it takes time to manually find the link to the content.
It’s also important that if you have a blog, that your feeds aren’t showing up in the first results, possibly resulting in less visitors.
