Facebook in the past integrated Facebook Chat and allowed you to always be online to all your friends or just not use Chat. The service for some time did not allow you to customize and block any friends. Now, with Facebook lists you can block/ show offline to those friends that you don't want to be bothered by. To do this create a list of friends that you want to show offline too. Friends-> Edit Friends-> Create a List

After creating a list, head over to Chat and click the green toggle button to set your self as Offline to those individuals.

Now enjoy your privacy :-)

Use Amazon's Wish List to get the Gifts You Want

I find Amazon's wish-lists very useful. I can easily record the things I want and share it with others such on Facebook. In this way, when my birthday is comes, people can see my wish list and they might get me a little something from it So if you do not have an Amazon account, create one to start a list and guide people to what you want. Then, head over to your Amazon wish list settings to set up delivery address. Now, start adding to your list and publish it on your social sites. Lastly, be patient, it takes time. Your Birthday is only once a year.

Here is my wish list. :-)

Make a Fence on Your Desktop

I have been in the IT Business for about 3-4Years now and in all that time I have seen many cluttered desktops. Icons just scattered everywhere! I wonder if people have ever thought of organizing them? If you have here is one solution. Fence your icon into categories. You may download a program called Fences. It will allow you to drag icons into sections and name those sections ie. My Games, My Computer, In Progress, etc. It is really easy. It will help organize and visually identify what icon you want.
