to remember your paths

I found a nifty little tool that helps me so much every day that I have to share.
It's free and totally great.

Here's the scoop:
If you are a power user or even a medium user, you tend to go to the same folders over and over again. You might end up with a bunch of shortcuts on the desktop, you might even have custom shortcut bars on your taskbar, but that might not be enough.
This little tool remembers the folders you've been using recently and whenever you need to open or save a file, a tiny toolbar is getting attached on top of your open/save dialog. This allows you to quickly select a folder you've used before or a folder currently open on your computer.
It's incredible how useful this is in its simplicity.
I find myself over and over looking for it when I'm working on other computers. I wish microsoft would integrate such a tool in their windows explorer.

It's called FlashFolder and you can download it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/flashfolder/

Enjoy!
