7stacks lets you pin multiple folders to your Windows 7 taskbar

One feature of the Windows 7 taskbar I don't quite agree with is the inability to pin folders somewhere other than Windows Explorer. I have two or three key folders that I'd like to access from my taskbar - and I'd rather not have create new toolbars to do it.

Apart from the stack view, you can also display folder contents as a menu (plain old lists) and grid (pictured).

To see 7stacks in action, you can watch a brief demo I captured after the break.
