several accounts in Mac OS X

Hey there!

I was wondering whether you've made any experiences with this:

I set up different user accounts on my macbook (personal/admin/guest/uni) so that I could supposedly "focus" on my uni-work and "not be distracted" when working. Trying to create some sort of an "office-atmosphere" on my macbook so to speak...

Turns out this is more difficult then I had thought. I keep finding articles, documents etcetera when surfing from my personal account that - ideally - I would like to transfer to my uni-account as quickly as possible and just keep it there.

Any suggestions on how this could be handled better?

Thanx a lot. Have a good day!

Martin

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
