The Shortcut - Local Disk

The Shortcut - Local Disk is a cool gadget that makes it super easy to get to your local disk drive. You know, when Windows Vista came out, it introduced gadgets, and it wasn't just Microsoft that jumped on board. Google and Yahoo! also rolled out their own desktop tools to help us access things faster.

How It Works

This gadget is designed to work with the Yahoo! Widget Engine. So, you'll need to install that on your computer first. Once you launch the gadget, it pops up in the sidebar with a default location already set up for you.

Keeping It Simple

One thing to note is that this gadget stays put in the sidebar, so you can't move it around. This helps keep your desktop tidy for other important stuff. But don't worry! If you want to open it again later, just launch the gadget file again, and you'll have quick access right there.

Personalize Your Access

You might think the name sounds a bit misleading at first, but that's not a bad thing. The widget has some neat options that let you change where it points by default. And here's the best part: you're not limited to just one specific folder! You can set it up for any folder you like. This feature is really handy for quickly accessing external devices whenever they get plugged in.
