My desk faces the door of my office and everyone walks past to the tearoom :(

I've managed to get a few posts in Video but that's about it :eek:

O masters of nef, come to my aid, i beseech thee ;)

set opacity on your browser close to 0. That way, you can see if you squint, but people passing by can't see well.

use the anandtech greasemonkey script in firefox....makes anandtech look like just another spreadsheet i think, and thus looks as if you were actually doing work :D

That's a brilliant idea

I was going to suggest just alt-tabbing if you hear anyone walking by, but that's much better

Get a bicycle mirror and put it on your monitor. That way you can see when someone is behind you and alt+tab. I also used a program that would minimize any other program to the system tray.

Resize the ATOT window so it fits neatly over the "message preview" window of Outlook/Outlook Express (or whatever you use).

It looks just like you're reading an email ;)
