I need a permanent thumbnail view of my Spaces desktops — actually, I find it amazing that Apple didn’t think of providing that as part of the package. If Spaces is too limited to reasonably contextualize your different workflows (by the way, here’s a little reminder of a hint: if what you’re missing most is the ability to efficiently spread browser windows across spaces, just use several browsers; works just fine for me), then at least it could be used to monitor information across several screens. I’d very gladly sacrifice a tiny permanent section of my actual screen if that allowed me to see at a glance what’s happening in the inactive virtual desktops.

Wonder how easily a third-party could provide that functionality. I mean, I’m sure someone will at some point, but I just hope it won’t need to be too much of a messy, unstable hack.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
