Arrange Folders in the Finder Window

I really like the ability to see the Finder window in column view—in fact this is my default view for most windows.

Off My Chest

I rarely swear on my blog, but I’ve just got to get this off my chest. A majority of Windows users hitting my site use Internet Explorer.
