Everyone tells me I have a lot of crap in my task bar. I don't think so - I use it all.

Items pinned to or currently open in the start bar: 20
Items in system tray: 19

I like to multitask, ok?

I only need a couple pinned to the taskbar, this one (Object Dock Plus 2.0) handles most of them.

It can autostart, but one of the extensions I use (stack docklet) doesn't work properly when it does for some reason, so I just pin it to the taskbar and start it when my PC starts.

Auto-hides off-screen at the top, and has all my shortcuts in it. Unclutters the desktop, and the taskbar :3

If you're interested I can post a screenshot of it.

I don't have them enabled, but I forget turning them off. I miss it though, when I decide to dump stuff to the desktop tongue.gif

Take note of my screenshot. I have a "Desktop" menu on my start bar so I can access all the shit I dump on my desktop easily, without added clutter biggrin.gif

I just re-enabled my desktop...

It's not like I have anything on there anyway, apart from what I dump, in which case I want it there so I can see it and deal with it
