Other things on there…

Chrome is my browser. Skype I use constantly. Impulse of course for managing my games and utilities. CVS for source control (not pictured is SVN and PerForce for other projects). Visual Studio 2005 for coding. Excel and Word of course going there.

Two questions for you, do you leave Tiles on the desktop or hide off screen and has Tiles replaced using ObjectDock for you?

Lookin' good. Have you tried Firefox 4? It feels a lot like chrome but with better plugins and addons (IMO).

Visual Studio 2005

Any particular reason why it is not a newer version?

Brad - $9.95 GalCivII purchase at Target led to Elemental purchase online which led playing Elemental mods from Wincustomize which led to my purchase of Object Desktop a couple of days ago. Haven't even explored a small portion of the options yet but diggin' it thus far!

Thanks! Been having fun with Deskscapes and will tinker around more this weekend with all the other packages. I've got myself dual monitors with one showing a futuristic alien world and the other showing a black hole gobbling a solar system. Sweet.

heh... STOP tempting me with tiles.  Its a very logical/useful enhancement to windows.  Kuddos on developing it... boo for slowly convincing me to spend more money... would be very useful when I'm working remotely as I'm often connected to 10 or more servers.  Anyway, good idea.  :)

If I may, though, why are you using chrome?  Not that I have anything against it, but I WAS using IEX.  Then I moved to firefox.  Tried out an early version of chrome and choose to stick with firefox.  Just wondering what put you over the top as I'd wager you've tried all of the browers out there.
