Cool Notepad Trick

This neat trick came across on an internal alias.  I hadn't seen this before, but I'm guessing it isn't new. Pretty handy for note taking:

• Open a blank Notepad file
• Write .LOG (in uppercase) in the first line of the file, followed by Enter. Save the file and close it.
• 
• Double-click the file to open it and notice that Notepad appends the current date and time to the end of the file and places the cursor on the line after.
• 
• Type your notes and then save and close the file.
• Each time you open the file, Notepad repeats the process, appending the time and date to the end of the file and placing the cursor below it.
