I like to see the time.

I've been bemoaning the lack of a good desktop clock for OS X ever since I switched. it's a little thing, but I like to be able to see the time and date both at the same time, without having to muckity muck around with the mouse.

I've checked out a few options, but I didn't find anything that suited my fancy. that is, until today, when I found out that OS X comes with it's OWN little desktop clock!

found at Al Fasoldt's Technofile, this article explains that buried in the System Directory is a "Window Clock". this is the same windowed clock that can be activated through the "Date & Time" system preference window, except that it doesn't disable the taskbar clock, which is ALSO handy to have about.

now, I can have this happy little clock display on my second monitor, while I bounce around on the screen, or on my PC. it's quite wonderful.

(yeah, I know, little things make me happy).
