Here is another good Mission Control(MC) tip for all you MC junkies out there. You can do more than just move applications between spaces. You can even drag the application and all its windows to whatever desktop space you choose in one easy step.
In this example I’m dragging Safari and three of its open windows from Desktop 2 to Desktop 1 where my Twitter application and iCal presently live.

when you doing these tips people will prefer videos
Hi John. Thanks for the comment. Tips are tidbits like these are, but how tos are more complex and better suited for video. These might make you think a little harder, but that is part of the fun!- DM

It wasn’t so difficult to try, this is a very simple and useful tip. I don’t think a video would be needed.
It was described using video in a Apple keynote from a while back. Can’t remember which one, maybe the last one.
awesome tip.
Well, that was easy! Great tip! :D
I really liked this tip, thankyou for providing some of the less obvious ones :)
Great tip! I’ve been trying to figure this out for months. With SL I used to press option (or command — can’t remember) and drag the windows. I kept wondering if Apple took this feature out.
