Saw this post over on Merlin Mann's blog about the contents of his menu bar and decided to blatantly copy him...
The reason? I often experience the same thing... Another mac user looks over my shoulder and says "Hey, what's all that stuff in your menu bar?". Well, here's the scoop...
left to right...
Dropcopy - quick and easy file sharing via bonjour
Adium - simply the best multi-client IM app for OS X
QuickSilver - need I say more?
Knox - create and edit encrypted disk images
ChronoSync - ( according to Merlin this is a "Very cool app for keeping two folders synced" ) I'm trying it out only b/c I saw it in his post...
TypeIt4Me - quickly insert often typed phrases with only a few keystrokes
JumpCut - quick and easy clipboard history
Growl - visual notifications for almost everything
SoundSource - switch sound inputs and outputs on the fly
Keychain Access - very useful for locking your screen
Displays
Volume
Airport
Battery
Bluetooth
Fast User Switching
MagiCal - replacement for the built in menu clock - nice options
Spotlight - *sigh
What interesting things do you keep in YOUR menu bar?

menu bar? you can KEEP stuff there? hmm ... maybe this is above my geek-aptitude!! ha!! what about the silence? I want to know about the silence! :)
I really am going to post about the silence. I have two blogs almost done... It is taking me some time to go through my journal and process my thoughts on the Silence.
you are my favorite computer geek!
I'm starting to believe you didn't REALLY go on this retreat I've been waiting so patiently to read about. :) I've been patient. It's been 9 days since I last mentioned it! ha!
no offense but you suck at blogging
you know what would make this blog a lot better? A post about - Nahh ... I won't say it. (getting dangerously close to a whole month of waiting ... although somewhat impatiently!)
I think this blog is broken! There aren't any new posts!
