Exploring Your Options Personalizing your desktop 151 For example, you can personalize the Taskbar to include not only Quick Launch icons, but also your favorite URL addresses or local folders and programs. DEFINITION: URL stands for Universal Resource Locator, which is the address that defines the route to a file on the Web or any other Internet facility. Generically, it is known as the World Wide Web site address. Having a list of favorite URLs handy saves time because using it bypasses the need for you to launch your browser first. To access all Taskbar options: 1 Point to an empty space in the taskbar and click the secondary button. 2 Point to Active Desktop and customize your setting. Bringing the world to your desktop With Windows Millennium Edition you can set up your desktop with complete World Wide Web integration at a single click. As Microsoft Help says, "The Active Desktop interface lets you put 'active content' from Web pages or a channel on your desktop. You can make your desktop truly your own space by adding the active items you refer to on a regular basis: news, weather, sports, stock prices or whatever you want to have at hand."
