Cory's Spot: Windows XP: Cool Registry Hack

Today I came across a cool little registry hack that added some functionality to Windows XP that I think I'll use a fair bit.

What this does is add both "Copy To Folder" and "Move To Folder" options to the right-click context menu, next to "Send To." It's an easier way to drop one or two files in a different location.

There are a couple of ways to implement this. The easiest is simply to download this file, right click on it, and choose "Merge." The other option is to follow the original instructions I used - here (from TechRepublic).

Cory's Spot: Renewed dedication attempt

I've been pondering on-and-off for some time now just what I can do to get motivated to post here more frequently. It's been especially difficult since my wife and I have a family blog, which is where the important stuff goes, so that's where a post is going if I have limited time. Two things I want to change about this blog that should make posting easier: first off, instead of focusing primarily on reviews, any little old thing can be posted here. For example, today's other planned post is just a little registry hack for Windows that adds some useful functionality - I almost sent it out in an email to just a couple of people, but figured this would be better. Secondly, I'm going to try to post even just quick, off the cuff, thoughts, instead of feeling like I have to work up a big essay. I don't know how well this will work, but I'll be giving it a try.
