I was going to make a long, detailed post with illustrations and all… and realized it would actually be a duplicate of the wiki’s contents. So instead I updated the Dalloway page’s list of all programs, accessories, widgets I use, and some details about them.

Why should you care? Because I spend all my time on the net, try every interesting program and accessory that’s been released, subscribe to any RSS feeds that can update me on whatever comes out — in short, slackers like me have a use for overbooked workers like you: sifting through a sea of software and returning with what’s really worthy.

And, as rarely happens when I start writing a blog post, I personally know of a couple readers who’ll actually be interested in this.

What you’ll see on the screenshot above (reduced by 75%, because, well, you know, it better be):

• in the dock’s applications section, left to right: Finder, BlogThumb (personal AppleScript that captures and uploads thumbnails for my blog), X Resource Graph, Safari, NetNewsWire, Thunderbird, Adium X, Mail, iCal, Address Book, TextWrangler, VoodooPad Lite, CocoThumbX, MacJanitor, iTunes, hotTunes, Clutter, Grab (don’t ask me where some of the icons come from, I downloaded every possible icon set on the web)

• in the dock’s shortcuts section, left to right: a temporary shortcut to a game I have to try, the ~garoo folder, the ~/Documents folder, a pictures folder, the ~/Library folder, the Dashboard widgets folder, a Saved Searches folder (with elementary Spotlight smart folders: Label Blue, Label Red, Label Yellow, Modified This Week), the /Applications folder, the trash

• in the menubar, left to right: Adium, iSnip, QuickSilver, the AppleScript menu (which I don’t ever use), the Keychain Access menu (for the Lock Screen option), the fast user switching menu, the menu control, MenuCalendarClock, Spotlight

• on the desktop, the X Resource Graph window and the Clutter shortcuts

• in the background, a David Lanham illustration

Links, details, and everything you can’t see on the capture (plug-ins, extensions, widgets), in the (almost) complete list of software I use on Dalloway.
