Desktop Overview: Part Two - Menu Bar
Here is the second installment of the four part series that examines all parts of my desktop.
Now that we have already had a look at my dock and now we will examine my menu bar. Above is a photo of my menu bar and all that I rely on up there.
From left to right, these are the things I keep in my menu bar…
Last.fm - I signed up for last.fm some time ago but have been brought back to it through the release of their new iPhone application.
Twitterific - My preferred application for keeping an eye on my twitter friends and updating my personal profile. Add me on Twitter
CoverSutra - Very handy application that supplies an overview and controls for iTunes.
Evernote - My favorite note storing application. Syncs with the web and my iPhone.
iStatMenus - Provides me with an overview of my entire system. I choose to display my network connection, RAM, and CPU activity. This way I can see why a web page might be loading slowly and why my system or a particular application my be running poorly. I also use iStatMenus to show my calendar because by clicking on the date, a drop-down calender presents itself.
Next up, we will have a look at my Finder and a little bit about file management.
