    im 1 of those people who has 10 pages open at a time so the "shake" thing is doing it for me. grab a window and shake it then all the window behind will disappear, shake again and they reappear.
    Stop being so stupid.. it’s my turn!!

    i guess everyone knows about the windows key + Tab?
    been implemented since vista.

    i dislike the way that items are "pinned" to the taskbar so this works for me.
