Customize with CandyBar

Those of you who have used Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger know that User Interface customization was typically an easy task and allowed you to make your Mac more your own. However, the software that users used to make these graphic changes in the past no longer works on Leopard and above. But have no fear! Candy Bar saves the day with a drag and drop interface to easily change any icon from a standard application icon to a system or volume icon. For just $29, Cnady Bar allows you to use free icon packs from The Iconfactory to change things up a little. Candy Bar also allows the customization of the dock. You can replace the background texture, "landing strip" seperator, lights and arrows and even convert the dock back to the old 2 dimensional version. Candy Bar is a must have for any Mac geek with a need for a personalized touch.

Download a 15 day trial of Candy Bar free from Panic Software and check out itsthurber.com for more reviews and Vlogs from me.

Myspace Copying Facebook

Facebook currently dominates the online social media scene right now. For those of you who use Facebook, you should be used to seeing a little bar going all the way across the bottom of your screen that allows you to send IM's, view online friends and see your updates. Well today I logged into my Myspace and I found an exact copy of that bar Facebook has, except its in blue. Come on now. I've always liked Myspace more than Facebook, but for Pete's sake, can you please come up with something more original?
