Monitors nowadays are cheap…. real cheap….
So please don’t sweat on your budget, go get an extra monitor, It can greatly boost your productivity by 20%+ factors.
So what this extra monitor can do for you?

Imagine having your products details and pictures updated at one screen using ecommerce store control panel, and reflected on your live store without pressing “ALT-TAB”…
Imagine doing a full-screen, side-by-side analysis and comparison for your online store design VS your toughest competitor
Imagine able to have one screen focusing on your favorite email application or MSN, another screen watching Transformers you just downloaded from bittorrent…
It doesn’t just apply to desktop, If you are a “mobile” online merchants, then you can do similar setting up with your laptop too.
See here on how to setup a dual screen for your desktop/laptop.
Heck, even bill gates works with 3 screens, so we are just one screen short compared to the world richest geek, not bad? If you are still not happy with just 2 screens, then you can try something below to beat bill gates.

(Kids, don’t even try this at home)

Rajiv Dutta, President of PayPal, recently just announced at eBay live 2007 that Paypal Security Key is already available to all the merchants! Doesn’t matter if you weren’t there, catch his recorded live-webcast online!
This baby definitely looks cool as a key chain. (Thanks for the picture, from 3dom)
Well, apparently not really all Paypal users can get it… since we got rejected numerous time when trying to apply for it, by both of their old-look site and new-look site.
We were rejected once….

Then we never give up, try again, rejected dunno how many times after….

Sigh.. no reason stated why, just keep asking us to “try again”. Well, apparently it’s no typical playing-hard-to-get, but we are no typical courter as well…
So What the fuss is Paypal security key?
===============================
An electronic Dongle with 6 digit real time security code. – same like those you will find if you have an account with HSBC banks.
The PayPal Security Key generates a unique security code approximately every 30 seconds (some other devices is every 60 seconds). Paypal users can use this code, along with their user name and password, to sign into both their eBay and PayPal accounts, helping to prevent unauthorized users from accessing them. If someone tries to access your account without the code, they’re locked out. The code – which is synchronized with your log in – will then change at the next 30 second cycle, so you can only get in each time by physically having the Security Key.
This additional security is known as 2-factor authentication, is used by leading financial institutions (like etrade, see below) as additional means to protect consumers and reduce losses from online fraud such as phishing attacks.

How do you convert your document to a PDF file, assuming that you are not using your own PC for your work and you want it fast but the computer you are using it now doesn’t have any word processor nor adobe pdf creator software built-in?
It’s simple, just fire up any web browsers, send a blank email to pdf@koolwire.com with the document you wish to convert and it’s done within minutes. cool?
Indeed, it’s all about web2.0 productivity.
If you still prefer a desktop solution, look no further than the pretty neat Free PDF Plugin called PrimoPDF.
