Not that you need to do it often, but it's useful for those times when you do! @Mike: Well I covered this in the post really – it’s handy whenever you need to look at a widget all the time while you’re working.

Most of these are found in the /System, /Applications and ~/Library folders. @Charlotte: The widgets are always on top, unless you use an app like Amnesty (see the post). @sunshane: Macs tend to store most of their settings in .plist files.
