I was trying this out and it took me a few minutes to realise that you couldn't drag "nick smith" from the Finder Sidebar ... it only works from
MacHD ~> Users ~> nick smith .... otherwise it's the dreaded puff ' o ' smoke!
I wanted to add that dragging 'nick smith' to the Dock
(to the space just to the left of the Trash Icon) is useful as when you click/hold on the
'nick smith' folder in the Dock it allows fast access to your Home Directory. You can also customise the folder icon if you like.
