... is the coolest shit ever.



FTR, Fark and my college's community forum readable straight from my desktop. Other random stuff like a to-do list and an editable calendar as well. All sorts of things can be put on here.. like a clock (My system clock is an hour off because of daylight savings and I'm too lazy to fix it)




Second bonus: option to automatically scroll websites vertically or horizontally, so when I mouse over the FTR area it scrolls right for me cutting off that bar on the left that no one uses. And its perfectly sized so I dont see the ads on the right. Beautiful.


You can also manage all your RSS feeds from your desktop - but FTR doesnt have one. A bunch of daily comics. Any website can be put in there, so basically anything on the internets can go straight on your desktop in these custom pods. So awesome... then on the bottom right goes my desktop icons - I dont use them much, the only one that gets used is shortcut to my computer once in a while but I just use start/run for most of it. You cant delete the recycle bin, though. I dont like desktop clutter

Anyway. Awesome. Active Desktop used to be so pointless but now its awesome.
