So if you are like me you are open to try new tools with your computer, but I know there are several people that are afraid of what is out there in the realm of customizing your desktop. Well, although this isnt new, i had a request from a buddy to talk about objectdock. If you have ever heard of blinds for windows its from the same guys. Very cool little add on tool bar that looks and feels like that neat little one on the Mac OS like Tiger or Leopard. This one is great free and very lite so everyone should be ok with it. Here is a quick screen shot of current work desktop:
You may also notice the cool transparency effect on some of the windows. This can be done really easily using a tool called glass2k. Super simply to use, just down load the little app and then right click on any window and it has the percentage of transparency you want.
There are all kinds of different ways to customize your desktop so get out there and have some fun and let me know if you all come across anything cool.
Oh one last plug check out http://yellowicon.com/ they have some very cool icons and things as well as a great free download section.
