Option-click to Hide Apps Quickly
This trick has been available in the Mac OS for years, but many people still don't know it. If you have too many windows cluttering up your screen, you can hide specific ones easily as you work. When you're in any application, hold down the Option key and click on another app's window, on the Dock, or in the Finder to switch to that other app and simultaneously hide all the windows in the previously current app.

| Internet Providers!
Internet Providers! -- In an attempt to provide more complete information about Internet providers in the second edition of Internet Starter Kit for Macintosh, I'm seeking information about providers around the world who are not listed in Peter Kaminski's excellent PDIAL list. (To request a copy of the PDIAL list, send email to <info-deli-server@netcom.com> with "Send PDIAL" in the Subject line.)
I'll post the results to the net as well, and feel free to forward this to providers who might not otherwise see it. Please send me <ace@tidbits.com> four (and only four) pieces of information:
Provider name
Your <info@domain.com> address for additional information
Your voice phone number
A list of the area codes you cover for local access (and the country if outside the U.S.) [ACE]
MARK/SPACE, INC: If you have a smartphone, we can sync it!Sync your address book, calendar, notes, music, pictures, and
more from your BlackBerry, Windows Mobile or Palm OS mobile
phone to your Mac. <http://www.markspace.com/bits>
