I dumped them all as fast as I possibly could. I found them unproductive and I found that none of them would put money on my bottom line. Others will see it differently from me, of course.

I think the sidebar is great for accessing information quickly.

Weather-because I actually go outside and its nice to quickly get an idea on how best to dress

Notepad-use this frequently for jotting down quick notes,ideas,quotes, etc...

calculator-use this very often

don't really need much else but i did play around with the ebay gadget for a while. I find the clock redundent because there is already one in the taskbar.
