Reopening closed tabs in browsers is an extremely handy feature especially when you have dozens if not hundreds of tabs open. What if Windows 7 got this feature too? Say you accidentally closed a folder you just found after a cumbersome search but now even thinking of searching the folder all over again is really annoying.
UndoClose is designed to eliminate this problem.

Pidgin always had the love of Linux users and due to its vast pool of plugins and multi network support (more than 16), its arguably one of the best chat client on windows as well.
It was originally created in 1998 with the name: Gaim. It’s completely free and open source. Did I tell you that its available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, BSD, Solaris and even Amiga!
The best part of Pidgin is that, unlike other desktop clients such as Digsby,Yahoo! etc. which show nagware and spam you to the core, Pidgin lets you do what you intend to: Chat Peacefully! It sits quietly in the tray so that it won’t come in your way.

This tip is for people who are used to doing multiple tasks on Windows. Win 7 has some really cool inbuilt features that have greatly reduced the effort involved in performing many tasks simultaneously.
Just to name a few, you can drag a window to the left side of the screen to have it snap to fill the entire left half of your screen, or drag it to the top of the screen to fill the entire screen.
But I guess, we are always in search of ways to make it even more easier. As for old OS (Windows XP/Vista), such features are completely lacking. Chameleon Window Manager tries to solve this problem for old OS while makes it a whole lot easier to multitask on Windows 7.
