Hide Windows of Running Programs

I love freewares, even more if they are Italian.

It's just out the latest version of TrayEverything, a program that in my view should be installed in every Windows machine.

Through TrayEverything you can minimize any window open in the system tray with a simple key combination.

Add to this the very useful function that allows you to hide icons in the tray to make "invisible" our work, then you will surely love this program.

If you wish to drive a "cofee break" but fear that a colleague watch your monitor, you can also set a password for both the software and for the minimized programs.

My Review of Sony ICF-DS11iP Clock Radio Docking Station

I bought this docking station a couple of weeks ago and I want to tell you what are the impressions that I got.


Basically it's a clock radio with digital radio presets and 6 (this function is very convenient because i don’t like to turn the wheel to go from one station to another), is fully equipped with two alarms configurable, A and B. It’s possible to configure each of the two alarms for working days at a time and for the weekend at a different time.


You can wake up with a buzzer or with the radio or your iPhone (or iPod). Very handy being able to set the alarm volume so don’t worry if during the day you listened to the radio too loud. There is snooze function, the display is nice and big and the brightness can be set to 3 different levels of intensity.


There is the remote, I thought it was a perfectly useless, but I had to change my mind, if the docking station is not within arm's reach (and that's my case) is convenient! ...because after I read a bit 'and I want to sleep, i don’t want having to move even an inch off the radio ...
There is a lithium battery that if the electric line go down don’t lose the time and setting alarms.


Meanwhile you listen to the iPhone (or iPod) yhe dock charge them, on the back there is an AUX input for any mp3 player.
The sound quality is the best I've ever heard in a clock radio, really good. Obviously NOT an HI-FI, so those looking for the purity of the sound or the depth of bass will look at other things and spend a looooot more ...


The only flaws I found are:
The menu navigation of the iPhone (I have a 3g) is purely sequential, if you select a playlist on the iPhone can only do play, stop, forward and back. I would have preferred more advanced features ...
The transformer is built into the plug and it is quite big, so if the plug is hidden behind the table consider that the plug-transformer has a reasonable footprint.


Overall, a purchase which I am very satisfied, from all points of view.
