I have been quiet annoyed for sometime now because I cannot have multiple desktops. I was using a product called Dexpot but it for some reason stopped working so I went fishing to see what I could find. Every desktop manager I came across was bloated, didn’t work properly and just didn’t fit the bill. I wanted a light weight desktop switching application for Windows 7.
I was just about to give up and start writing my own when I cam across mDesktop. Brilliant! Light weight, small foot print. Very cool.

Cheat sheet:
Alt+Desktop Index (e.g. Alt+1, Alt+2...) switches between desktops
Alt+Ctrl+Desktop Index sends the active window to the Desktop Index
Happy days! Perhaps Microsoft will catch a wake up one day regarding multiple desktops. The API is there, can’t for the life of me figure out why they haven’t done this.
