[WEB4LIB] Brainstorming time! - Multiple monitors

[Rick Levine]

How about reference CD's containing hyperlinks on one screen; the links
launch the browser in the other screen.
You can use this for PowerPoint presentations, too: the slide show displays
on a projector while you see your outline/notes on your monitor. (Takes a
little plug-juggling - a full-screen app [the slide show] will only run in
the primary display.)
