If you use web apps like Gmail on a Mac, you need Fluid

Here’s a demo of what one dude accomplished with Fluid and a muxtape. Looks pretty, but the real value of Fluid is in making those apps you have open all day (e.g., Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Chat, Googe Docs, Muxtape/Seekpod/Youtube) behave like actual applications (i.e., living in the applications dock and not in a browser window, and not all having to be closed at once when Firefox locks up on a single page).

    Unless you’re a power user/nerdasaurus like me and can’t live without your Greasemonkey scripts/addons. Unmodded Gmail feels damn near unusable to me now…

  • This is insane: when Americans get sick, it boosts our GDP. Because now we have to spend a bunch of $$ on medical care. Obesity FTW! 4 hours ago
  • RT @alexismadrigal I used to rethink tweets way more often. 8,000 in, it's like "If you don't get it by now, I don't know what to tell you." 5 hours ago
  • My survey of how often people self-censor on Twitter was revealing, by the way. Many of you are only just barely keeping your id in check. 5 hours ago
