Wide screen monitors have lots of space. Then why not design and customize it with your convenience. How about the idea of embedding a website on to your desktop? This can be easily done with Windows XP. Just follow these steps......


* Open your favorite webiste in IE.

* Now find the RSS feeds and click on the arrow beside "Display feeds from this website" and select the desired entry in the toolbar.

* Copy the URL of the site in address bar to clipboard .

* Now Right-click on free space on the desktop ==> Properties ==> 'Desktop' tab ==> "Customize Desktop"

* Click on "Web" tab ==> "New"

* Paste the URL in the 'Location' field ==> "OK"

* Now the item added is displayed in the Webpages listbox.

* Make sure the checkbox next to the URL is checked adn click "OK".

* Now you can see that an area of the desktop is running live with the News.

You can move it on the desktop to your desired location and can even scale the window.

To remove the webiste.....

* Right-click on the Desktop ==> Properties ==> 'Desktop' tab ==> "Customize desktop"

* Uncheck the checkbox of the webiste you wish not to display.

* Alternatively, you can even remove the item completely from the list by selecting the item and click "Delete" button on the right.
