Personal productivity tip

For the last few months I've been using a neat little program called ActiveWords.  It sits between your keyboard and your operating system and allows you to trigger things to happen as you type, to save you time and helps you avoid using the mouse and diving between programs.  It can trigger key words to launch applications, it can recognise a key word to open a browser and jump to particular web page, it could capitalise a word or a name, or correct miss-spelled words (a spell checker that works for every program).  The action can be triggered by a double space if you want to launch a program, or a space if it is to correct spelling, and you can configure it in a variety of ways.  This is one of those things you need to try out to see how many keystrokes and hand movements it will save you.   It costs $30/$50 and there is a 60 day free trial.  Treat yourself for Christmas.
