I’ve commented on the issue of interface clutter repeatedly on this site – modern apps spawn windows in multitudes, and even with a 20″ screen it’s almost impossible to keep things organized, leaving users to click around, mutter, minimize, tab switch, and curse as they try and find the right window that contains the piece of whatever project they’re working on at the moment. While no mainstream OS has an ideal fix for this problem (and really I think we need a new interface paradigm to solve this, though I’ve yet to see anything I like in this regard), things like my beloved quicksilver come close, and Macosx’s Expose helps tremendously. The good folk at Otaku Software have brought most of the features of Expose to win32 with their topdesk utility. It’s not free, but $9.95 is about as close as you’re going to get to free and this really is a tremendous productivity booster once you get used to it.
