1) Constitution Finder


Constitution Finder is a collection of constitutions, charters,

amendments and other related documents from the University of

Richmond. Nations of the world are linked to their constitutional

text posted somewhere on the Internet. This sites lists not only constitutions in effect, and their amendments, but also

constitutions which have been superseded as well as drafts not yet

acted upon or else abandoned. Many countries have constitutions

listed in multiple languages and revisions.


We found the 2005 Constitution of Iraq and made it available in an

askSam eBook. askSam is a great place to store information such as

this from the web. Check out our free eBook below.

2) 2005 Constitution of Iraq -- FREE askSam eBook


The current constitution of Iraq was approved by a referendum that

took place on October 15, 2005. The constitution was drafted in

2005 by members of the Iraqi Constitutional Committee.


We have placed the full text of the constitution in a searchable

askSam database divided into sections, chapters and articles. It

is available to search online or to download to your computer.

4) Free Stuff - Launchy


Forget about the start menu. Launchy indexes the programs in your

start menu and can launch your documents, project files, folders,

and bookmarks with just a few keystrokes!


No more searching for that program. Simply press ALT+SPACE BAR,

type in an item ("Microsoft Word" or "Notepad" or "Google") and it

opens. It's that simple and that fast.


Do more than just open programs...


  -Search the internet: enter "Google<TAB>Search"

  -Use the calculator: enter "1200+1200*.08"

  -Check the weather: enter "Weather<TAB>Zip Code"


This is one of the most useful utilities I have used. Give it a try.

5) askSam Tech Tip: Add askSam file shortcuts to your desktop


Getting to an askSam file can require several mouse clicks,

especially if the file is stored in a unusual folder or on a

network. Did you know that you can create a shortcut to open a

specific askSam file?


To create a shortcut to an askSam file on your desktop...


  - Locate the askSam file using Windows Explorer or My Computer.

  - Right mouse click the askSam file (*.ask)

  - Choose "SEND TO" then "DESKTOP (CREATE SHORTCUT)"


You now have an icon on the destop linked directly to an askSam

file. No more searching folders for a file -- just double click.


You can change the name of the icon and even change the icon by

right clicking the icon and choosing properties.


I have created a folder on my desktop called "AS FILES" and store

all my direct links in this folder for organization. To create a

folder on your desktop right click on your desktop and choose

"NEW" and then "FOLDER". Simply drag and drop your askSam icons

onto the folder.

"askSam is an essential part of my software tool chest. I can research and collect data from anywhere and any source. Once it is in askSam I can edit, rearrange, organize, and search the information easily. Then I can present it and make it totally useful for other people via the web or CD. Fantastic!"
