It won't be speedy, but when you need it you need it, include when you're debugging random crashes and hangs at home: Scott Hanselman's Computer Zen - Set up your system to use Microsoft's public Symbol Server .
Scott also has a post on mini-apps: Scott Hanselman's Computer Zen - PortableApps Suite 1.0 Released - now that I'm loading reference and tool-chest materials on to various USB drives, apps that can just be run (imagine that) are awesome to have ready to go.
A video about using SysInternal tools: Scott Hanselman's Computer Zen - DNRTV - Sysinternals Tools.
Getting ahold of EXIF information that comes with the digital pictures you take: Scott Hanselman's Computer Zen - Accessing EXIF Photo Data from JPEGs with PowerShell - hmm, now I'll just have to see if there's an easy way to modify the same (e.g., for taking a GPS track at the same time and updating the GPS loc in the EXIF header).
