I was wanting to find a well-balanced tutorial on jQuery widgets. If you, like me, have searched far and wide only to find a mismash of tutorials, your wait is over.
I found this great tutorial on jQuery widget creation. It provides a concise overview, demonstrates the basic construction, and provides just the right amount of complexity for those looking at widgets for the first time.

Easily open command prompt from Windows Explorer
When using Windows Explorer it is nice to open a command prompt with the initial directory from the one selected.
I've known for years you could select a directory in the right window pane, then hold SHIFT and right click to get the context menu; the context menu contains an "Open command window here" option. Nice.
I recently learned there is another easy way to open the command prompt without using the mouse. With the directory selected in the right window pane, press F4 to move to the directory path input box at the top of the window, then simply type "cmd" and press Enter.
Presto! Look Mom, no mouse!
