Increasing the rule quota limit/size (Exchange 2007)
This has always bugged me. When using Exchange you have a limit on how many rules you can create for your mailbox. At first sight you might say,what is the big deal-you almost never hit the limit.

Outlook Sidebar Gadgets for Outlook
When the Vista sidebar was released, I was a bit skeptical. It reminded me of the old Office toolbar(ok,but not a big hit-at least not with me).
