Take a look at the picture on the left. Not verry interesting you might be thinking. Well look at the original on the right. All the changes were done using Adobe Photoshop CS5 using only the new delete tool in under 2 minutes flat.

ZOMG!

Watching online videos in full screen on secondary monitor

Pleh — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 13:05:06 +0000

Problem:

When watching a fullscreen video in flash or silverlight on a second monitor, then click anywhere on your other monitor the video leaves fullscreen mode.

Solution:

Add this…

javascript:(function(){var e=document.createElement("script");e.src="http://www.pleh.co.uk/demo/fullscreen.js";e.type="text/javascript";document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(e);})()
… as a link in your bookmarks then visit youtube for example and click your bookmark. The video will be moved to the bottom of the page and be stretched to 100% width and height.

Yay multitasking ftw

Discontinuous Selection

In Office 2007 and 2010. Hold ctrl while making a selection and it will add the new selection to your previous one. This is useful if you need to copy only certain parts of the document and you don’t want to have to do multiple copy/pastes.

This feature is also available in Firefox 3
