One of the common themes at Saturday's barcamp in Waterford was the challenge of working from home. Apart from the loneness there is always the need to get your head down and focus on a task that needs doing.
I have just started using Dexpot for that - it allows you to run multiple desktops so with a flick of the Windows Right Arrow keys I can switch from my busy normal desktop (across 2 screen so tooo much happening) to one that shows 2 blank screens.
Yep - you can do that by turning your screens off - but isn't a free utility just more fun :-)

Thanks for the link - I'm trying it out now.
Expect Kudos or brickbats in the next couple of hours :-)
