Check out what is in the middle of my desktop
That is right. It is a convenient Air America Radio feed. Luv it!

2. You need to get it.
It takes up little memory and is really cool. Out of all the desktop enhancements I have, I have settled on this one. I especially like the iTunes companion widgets.

6. I just made a Google-search of Konfabulator.
It looks interesting, and I'll check it out later in detail. But can you provide some info on that "Lookup" thingie?

My desktop is clutterd beyond belief, and I'll have to do some extreme "brush-chopping" pretty soon (NOT like Dubya's photo-op schtick!). I'll save an image of your desktop and see if I can bring mine a little closer to sanity.

9. The look-up thingie
is one of the widgets you can download from Konfabulator. It's at their download page. It's connected to www.dictionary.com

11. You can try it for free for a while
then it is like $25 USD if you want to continue to use. I also like the picture frame widget that you can see in the upper right of my screen.

8. When you visit
let me know. We aren't all freepers here in Texas. In fact, I love my state and therefore want to kick all these bastards out. Thanks about the desktop.

14. I have a few other comments off and on
about people who listen to Fear Factory. I really like them. Really hard metal with shades of techno. As far as metal goes they are quite melodic too! Great band!

19. One other thing is that the icons you see are custom
They are not part of Konfabulator. I have them through a program called IconX. Hold on. I'll get the info.

21. Just in case anybody is wondering.
Here are some desktops I did with Konfabulator, plus custom wallpapers from Deviantart.com and custom icons.
