One of the ways Groupy transforms your work flow is that you start to think in terms of TASKS instead of APPS. Let me describe my workflow and hopefully you will see how obviously transformative it is: Group 1: Development Task (Perforce + Visual Studio + Explorer + CMD) Groupy is super compelling whether you are using a single monitor or, like me, have 4 monitors. Fast forward 4 years and now Groupy is here! The little CES demo focused on Explorer and Office (as we had that kind of working at that point) to show how useful it would be to be able to group the two together into a single, maximized window. The motivation to create Groupy came from the frustrating of having lots of windows open (a very filled taskbar) but wanting to group my windows together based on what the user was working on. It allows users to drag windows together and create a single tabbed window.Ī few years ago at CES, I showed a prototype of it to Mary Jo Foley, Paul Thurrott, Brad Sams and others. Groupy is a new program from Stardock that does something so simple that, in hindsight, seems like it should have always been part of the OS. ![]()
