Back to Geektool

Geektool is a nifty little preference pane tool that let’s you run scripts to display all sorts of stuff on your desktop. There are a lot of resources online to help you get just about anything on your desktop. From todo list, calendar items, to a big bad clock Geektool will certainly spruce up your desktop. Just remember this added features on your desktop will consume some system resources, not much but for the system resource obsessed be forewarned, lol.

…And yes that’s a modified recreation of HTC’s Sense interface on my desktop c/o Geektool. I still have to tweak quite a few settings to get it to look the way I want it, and I have to make pixel movements to align everything just right, so consider it a work in progress. There’s a tutorial online for this found here.

Here’s a repository for Geektool scripts.
