			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img width="196" height="60" border="0" align="left" alt="Fences" src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/fences-logo.png" />I really struggle to keep my desktop clean and files in  place. It&rsquo;s tough to organize especially when I am researching on a  topic/article and download files and software&rsquo;s in the process. </p>
<p>  <a target="_blank" href="http://www.stardock.com/products/fences/">Stardock&rsquo;s Fences</a> solves that issue,&nbsp; it helps you mark and assign areas on the  desktop to a specific project. All you got to do is just drag and drop the  files in the assigned area for the project and the files just stay there  without mixing with other files. </p>
<p>  Before I get into details let me tell you about one feature  which is a mood changer, literally a mood changer. This feature is called  Quick-Hide which lets you hide ALL your desktop files just by a Double-Click on  the desktop, that&rsquo;s all! Double-click again and they are back on the desktop.</p>
<p>  <span id="more-2844"></span>Once the application is installed the first-time wizard  fires up and you will be presented with options to create &ldquo;Fences&rdquo; on the  desktop if not just right-click on the desktop and drag the pointer to create a  fence. In addition to creating fences and dropping files into it.. you can simply right-click and drag over a group of icons to create a fence with files in it.</p>
<p>  The software adds a few options to the right-click menu on  the fence which let you Lock Fences, Edit Fences, Exclude this Fence from  quick-hide, Rename Fence and Delete Fence. </p>
<p>  It also lets you take snapshots of your desktop from time to  time so that you can revert back to a particular layout if you want to.</p>
<p>  Fences is a free software and works with XP, Vista and  Windows 7. Click <a target="_blank" href="http://www.stardock.com/products/fences/">here</a> to download. </p>
<p>  The following video shows a demo of the software</p>
