Hi all!
Another applications that modifies GUI... well, Windows desktop really. All of you must've known a new feature included in Windows Vista & 7 called
Windows Sidebar (Vista) &
Windows Gadgets (7).
If you like it and actually know the function of these new features, then I must share this application called
Rainmeter.
Rainmeter displays customizable skins, like memory and battery power, RSS feeds and weather forecasts, right on your desktop. Many skins are even functional: they can record your notes and to-do lists, launch your favorite applications, and control your media player - all in a clean, unobtrusive interface that you can rearrange and customize to your liking.
Rainmeter is at once an application and a toolkit. You are only limited by your imagination and creativity.
And the good thing about it: Windows XP users can use it too(because XP doesn't feature
Windows Gadgets) and it's a damn-near-Godlike replacement for
Windows Sidebars or
Gadgets.
Here's the link:
Rainmeter
(It's recommended to use this application with RocketDock as I posted in previous Thread.)
This is my actual desktop lol (notice the
RocketDock above the Windows Taskbar) very crowded... but I like it :D
Enjoy, n00b!
