Meme Time!: What’s in your menubar?
This one is really for all you Mac peeps who also have blogs (What’s that? You don’t have a blog where you drivel on about all the inane bits and pieces of your life? *snort* How 20th Century of you!), but hicksdesign, the blog of Jon Hicks (great blog; check it out), just started a meme about menubars: ”Last year, the question was being asked around mac blogs, ‘Whats in your dock?’. Now I feel its time to ask the same about menubars. With so many apps using menu items, I find my menubar is becoming just as crowded as my dock.”
Here’s the rules: take a screenshot of your menu bar.
Upload it to your blog. Post a comment on the entry linked above with a link to the pic, noting any odd members
of your menubar. Easy. Like this:
1. Quicksilver
2. Konfabulator
3. Timbuktu
4. Etc., so forth, and so on… Feel free to guess the rest in the comments!

Also, just a reminder: to have a comment appear here, you have to confirm it via your email address. Otherwise, I'll see it, but it won't go up live.
