Bugged with those unused files in your Laptop!! - Try CCleaner
CCleaner (Crap Cleaner) is a freeware tool that can perform system optimization by removing unused and temporary files from your system, allowing Windows to run faster, more efficiently and giving you more hard disk space. CCleaner cleans unused files from many applications like Adobe products (Flash Player, Photoshop, and Reader), Ad-Aware SE, Firefox, Google Toolbar, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Office, Nero, Norton Antivirus, Real Player, Windows Media Player, WinRAR, WinZip, and Google products to name a few.
This tool also has a Registry Cleaner that deletes old and unused entries.
I tried it on my laptop and I feel that the speed of my machine has increased, not significantly though, but still I was able to clean up the crap :).

Adobe presents Acrobat.com

Acrobat.com is a set of online services that enables a user to create and share documents from any computer, communicate in real-time across locations and simplify working with others online. With Acrobat.com, users can create Adobe® Buzzword® documents, convert documents to PDF, organize and access their documents from any internet-connected computer, share documents, and meet in real time with Adobe® ConnectNow.
Buzzword looks like a normal word processor, but it operates inside a web browser. Because Buzzword is web-based, the document you are editing is not stored on your local machine, but rather on Adobe's secure servers. This means that you can access your document from any web connection. Just like any other document editor you get all kinda tools to help you develop a document.
Adobe® ConnectNow provides you with a secure, personal online meeting room where you can meet and collaborate with others via the web in real time. With ConnectNow you can share your screen, chat, share notes webcam or files with your friends.
With Acrobat.com you can also create pdf files online. The only drawback I found in Acrobat.com is its slow speed, although you cant expect much when it comes to online sharing and file creation. Check out Acrobat.com here.
