Our Most Popular PostsFuzzyClock gets Universal Binary updateMerlin Mann | Apr 30 2007
My friend, Matt, first showed me FuzzyClock a few years ago, and I'll admit that, at first, it seemed sort of silly and counter-intuitive. But even after a few days' use, it became one of my favorite little Mac apps. Unlike the typical digital clock that tells you the precise time, FuzzyClock gives you -- well -- a fuzzy version of the time. So, instead of your menubar displaying "4:58:23 PM," you'll see "nearly five." Plus, you can enter in your own custom fuzz -- for example, changing the period from "5:25pm through 5:35pm" to "beer thirty." Many thanks to Guido for the fast update to universal binary; he heard my whining the other day, and pushed out a new DMG lickety-split. Now, I think the last three PowerPC holdouts on my personal UB wish list are SplashShopper, AutoPairs, and HumaneText. On that last one -- a useful OS X Service for turning Markdown text into HTML and back -- I suppose its author, Jack, can be forgiven. He's been kinda busy lately. POSTED IN:

Text 'clipboard' for MacSimon Lewin | Jan 6 2008Firstly, I hope I've posted this in the right area - apologies if not. I'm looking for a Mac utility that will allow me to easily store a selection of often used chunks of text (sometimes for us in e-mails, sometimes in documents) that I can quickly find and paste when needed. Any recommendations? Many thanks, Simon POSTED IN:
