Desktop Customizations

Category : Software, Web/Tech, Work, Life, etc.

How do you have your desktop arranged on your computer? Me personally, I like a fairly clean desktop, so I don’t have many icons on it. I am running Windows 7 beta, so the only icons I have on my desktop now are the trash and two links to remote desktops, along with the Weather Gadget. Here is a screen shot.

I like a minimal desktop and I have all my most used programs pinned to the taskbar, and my other programs I use are pinned to the start menu. There are people out there who like to customize even more, so here are a few examples from posts on Lifehacker’s Featured Desktop Series that I liked the most.
