I don't know if this has been mentioned on here before but this is what I call a 'magic folder' which pops up from the side of your screen.

Create a new folder on your desktop. Now click on this and drag it to the side of your desktop hard up against the edge. Release it there and it will form a band down the side of the screen.

Now right-click inside that band and set auto-hide on. You should find it vanishes away and only reappears when you mouse to the edge of the screen.

Cut and paste any shortcuts from your desktop into that folder. They will vanish from the desktop but still be instantly available from the pop-out menu.
