Slowly but surely more tools to tweak Vista are coming out. For those of us who just aren’t happy until we know we can tweak and tune our whole desktop experience, this is great. Today I came across TweakVI. Here’s the description from Lifehacker:
The software provides a wealth of tools for messing with Vista’s guts, […]
I love this intro into Alpha Geeks’ Vista gadget article:
Granted, a few Sidebar Gadgets offer little more than eye candy designed to wow consumers at Best Buy. But if you know where to look, you can stock your Sidebar with some genuinely useful tools. Let’s take a look at the cream of the crop.

Yep, I’ve covered this before and I’m covering it again. Why? Well because I find it a good idea to compare tweaks and see when the same ones keep coming up. If the tweaks are good, you’ll see them a lot, if not … you won’t. Extreme Tech had some tweak-er-ific fun lately…
