One of my favorite tips of all time (and don't stop me if you've heard this before) deals with the SendTo menu. If you only have the default shortcuts in there, you're missing out on a world of functionality. You could be putting shortcuts in there for various (common) applications... and possibly even folders. The "must have" shortcut in the SendTo menu has to be Notepad. It's the easiest way to view a textual file. Click on the Start button, select "Run," type in "sendto" (without the quotes), then make a new shortcut to Notepad within that folder. Don't stop there, either... think about what else you might be able to "send" stuff to.
