The one that I remember is Sequoiaview, it should work for all kinds of Windows.

I still use the same thing I used from years ago, scanner.exe cause it rules so hard. (I only have one win 7 pc and hundreds of xp ones I use and take care of I don't remember if you have to run this elevated or not, probably so)

Would this work in Windows 7. I use this in XP all the time. You can color code different file types so it lets you know where everything is. Works great.

I finally upgraded my phone after 6 years and picked up a Razr. So far its great but I'm wondering if there is an app like "universal inbox" that shows notifications for missed calls, e-mail, facebook, and texts all in one window? Universal isn't bad but it doesn't show missed calls and it's always on screen.

There's a blur app called "Messaging" which has all of your email, texts and stuff like FB notifications all in one. As for something like you get on blackberries, not that I've found.

Does anyone with experience with GameBoid know what directory it places the Sav files on your device? I'm trying to continue a Pokemon FireRed game I was playing on my old PSP, but I can't tell where to put the Sav file.

There's also Pure Messenger Widget, but I don't think it does Facebook.

Yeah, it does Facebook and Twitter. And the other stuff, but it's also always on screen.

It has some sort of problem with certain versions of Gmail, though, I think. Maybe he fixed that already.

Is there a good contact management app out there? My fiancee uses her android for work, and we're going to update her to the Droid 4 when it comes out. She's currently using contact groupu, but she doesn't like it very much. Is there a good one that's pretty easy to use now?

I've changed the location and it always seems to put my saves in the same directory as the games. Or if the bios file is in another folder, try that.

Or as posted above, just search for .sav (or .ss0, .ss1, etc...)

Still not here yet.
Has anyone used quickoffice & dropbox? I tried using it one day for notes, but I lost half a day's work when it decided "save, then upload to dropbox" means "download the old version, and overwrite the latest copy, and make sure you can't undo".

Their support basically said "We haven't heard of that problem. Your version shipped with the Galaxy Tab, try downloading our free trial! Does that solve your problem?"

I have no problem with it. She wants one where she can easily sort into categories and look at those categories when looking for a contact. She has hundreds of contacts and wants to keep the "work" ones away from the "play" ones. I can see where editing online will help, but when she's on the phone, she'd rather click "work" and find something there or click "friends" and find someone in there, than scroll through hundreds of contacts.

It can be. Google contacts supports G+ circles and other custom made groups. Later, one can go into the contacts/people app and display whichever circle/group.

I'm guessing it's on the table. One of G+'s main goals was to unify all of Google's products across the board.

Chrome Beta for ICS. Google Blog post about it: http://chrome.blogspot.com/2012/02/introducing-chrome-for-android.html

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=lVjw7n_U37A

-------------

Seesmic finally updated and released Seesmic Ping (they bought Ping.FM a while ago). I'm assuming this will replace the entire Seesmic App but it's nice and is in Beta right now. It'll be a paid app afterwards (they label it as a paid service so I hope it's not a subscription based thing): https://market.android.com/details?id=com.seesmic.ping

EDIT: I forgot how Ping.FM worked I guess cause you can't see the Twitter timeline with this app. It's just for posting to Twitter/Facebook/whatever.

More Chrome integrated, and shows your current open desktop tabs, which is nice I guess. Hopefully they'll eventually become one.
