As described and demoed in out recent usergroup-meeting PlatyPS is actively developed further and elevated to a prerelease version 2.0.0-Preview1. Read the announcement and give it a try !
Hiding Taskbar Search
Managing Desktops is probably the number two objective after managing Active Directory for PowerShell. Jeffrey Hicks wrote some code to hide the taskbar search. Nice !
CSV CSV CSV
CSV is a very old format for list-data, but still commonly used to export data between different systems. Jeffrey Hicks (again) wrote a custom CSV-importer with some useful enhancements. Blog post about it and code can be found here.
