Enter Dashboard, Expose, or Spaces Temporarily
Hold down F9, F10, F11, or F12 (or whatever you've set for the Expose and Spaces keyboard shortcuts) for a few seconds, and then release the key to enter and leave the appropriate mode without having to press the key again. This is particularly useful for Dashboard, in which you can check the contents of a widget and then return to your work with a single key press.

| Netiquette for Execs
Netiquette for Execs -- Casimir Couvillion <casimir@tgsgeo.com> passed along an excellent suggestion that we'll be sure to work on for a future issue of NetBITS:
I really liked the first issue of NetBITS. I particularly enjoyed the Real Life Internet Lessons for Kids article, which was a great synopsis of netiquette and what to look out for on the Internet. It will certainly get passed around a lot (with appropriate citation of course). I would love to see a version of this edited to speak strictly to adults. While the lessons are valid for adults, I would find it difficult to forward it as it is to executives in our company. They need to read it, but might feel that I'm talking down to them by giving it to them as it is.
