I am always on my computer when I am “watching” TV. I love the TV TRACKER widget. It let’s you define the chanels you want it to show making it easy to scan what’s currently on the chanels you watch so you don’t have to waste time scrolling through UPN, QVC and ANIMAL PLANET.
LOCKER let’s you quickly lock your computer. When you double click it, it will lock your computer. You will end up at login window, just as if you had used the fast user switching menu item.
i have pretty much abandoned all my widgets and hardly ever tap the F12 key to access them. the only one i really use is the Konfabulator Weather widget, and thats because it is visible all the time. i guess i’m just lazy.
widgets are useless… ALWAYS OUTDATED.
rss feeds… now thats some usefull shit.
Yeah, it let’s you “quickly” log out, assuming you just happen to be hanging out in Dashboard—but why the fuck would I be doing that?
If I’m not in Dashboard, just logging out via the menu is no slower. You’re a fucking nerd, dude 🙂
now Quicksilver, thats an app i can get behind.
I agree…
QUICKSILVER is the FUCKING SHIT!!
Guav, I am a dork…
but I dont have fast user switching on and this lets you LOCK your machine with out LOGGING OUT
so when I lock it down all my apps are still running
(if I logged out that wouldnt be the case)
so when I step to the bathroom at work I can lock down my machine so little rats wont jump on my scanner, when I return I just type my password and photoshop is still rendering that shitty filter…
I am not really sure what QUICKSILVER is…
jeff, you let me down, man. even i know about the greatness of Quicksilver. but i would consult the CBA on its many virtues. he knows all.
