Nice job, your task bar looks a bit busy.

Yeah I've got around 40 application shortcuts places on my Dock (Task Bar on Windows ). I'll probably remove some of the shortcuts as I get more of an idea as to what I tend to use often and what I use not so often. A lot of people don't like a lot of icons on the Dock, but I like been able to just quickly see the icon and then click on it.
There's other ways to load up the apps such as going into Launch Pad, this basically shows you, well what I would describe as a iPhone type layout of the apps and also folders of similar apps (if you have created folders of similar type apps by dragging an app on top of another, exactly the same procedure as you do on the iPhone to create folders).
You can also press the following keyboard shortcuts, Command space will then bring up a Spotlight bar at the top of the screen, simply type the name of whatever your looking for and it will then appear (before you've even completely finished typing the name) you then just click on the name to run it or open it if its a document.
Or lastly you can simple go into the Applications folder, and then click on the application you are wanting to run.
Its good to be able to have more than one way to run the apps I find, has not everyone likes running apps in the same way.
I think I'll make another video guide showing what I've mentioned above, has I wasn't aware of all the different ways when I first got my Mac, perhaps it will be of help to new users of Mac's who are members on this forum.

I think an interesting one to do would be a review/how to use the myo2 app. However you'd struggle to remove all your personal data:(
I had a go at doing a video guide on how to use it today, but with the the options sliding in when the various buttons were pressed and with my phone number been in different places on the different screens it was very difficult/impossible to obscure my personal details 
After having a talk with Toby. We thought it would be a good idea to put some video guides on for doing certain things on Mac.
Thought it would be useful for members like myself who are new to Mac or who are thinking of moving from Windows to Mac.
I got a lot of help off of various people on various forums before I got my Mac who helped me out immensely with various questions I asked and also with hints and tips and I thought I could pass these on to some of the new Mac members on here
A lot of the videos will be showing various keyboard shortcuts, has the various keyboard shortcuts can really make things easier and faster so I thought I would show some of these keybaord shortcuts. I'll make a seperate video for each keyboard shortcut, so as to keep things simple, has the more keyboard shortcuts I put in a video, the harder they are to follow, so I thought keep it simple and have one video for one keyboard shortcut
I will be doing other Mac videos too.
The Mac video guides will be getting put in this thread.
