Here I collect some of the informations I extracted from different sources or from my own experience. These are things which I tend to forget in no time flat and might need in the future.
You are welcome to use these infos as you like, BUT don't send me mails to ask questions!
In Windows Vista and Windows 7 a Mobility Center is available from the control panel or by the shortcut win+x.
The Mobility Center contains so-called tiles to control the hard- and software of a laptop, e.g. screen brightness, speaker volume,
wireless LAN device. Custom tiles are usually available from laptop producers.
How to create custom static tiles is described here.
For different web-sites and use cases I needed the Apache URL rewrite module in order to re-direct and beautify the web address. You find this collection here.
