    Hi Danby and Ross,
    I”m glad to know how to access this incredible website. I’ll travel vicariously with you!! (ha). It looks like you guys are having a great time. But we sure do miss you.

    Have a great rest of your trip.

    Geoff, you’ve installed the 10.5.2 update, which restores the functionality we lost in 10.5.0. Solutions like DockAppsMenu were intended to provide some relief until Apple fixed the situation, as they have now done.

    Im a new mac user so forgive me if this is dumb but if you drag the applications folder to the dock then right click it and select “list” it produces the applications in a list like your screenshot.

    Thanks for saving me from several months of frustration. Mental note to self - “I owe Ross Carter a beer or job or something.” I like to think someone at Apple looked at this page and decided enough people were annoyed that this fix needed to be in 10.5.2.

    I’m gratified that people are still finding DockAppsMenu useful. But I suppose I should reiterate that I stopped working on it, and in fact do not use it myself, because I consider Quay a far superior solution.

    Hi Ross, you fill perfectly that leack within Leopard’s dock! Just one suggestion (maybe 2). Couldn’t the displayed window for entering the root folder be move in your application preference in the menu bar (I see that we can hide it). Icon display would be also nice. But it’s not a big deal. By the way than many thanks for your great job. Merci beaucoup!!!

    I think this is a great little tool. I would *love* it if it supported icons as well.

    Nice work :-)

My favorite iPhone 2.0 feature

I absolutely love TedTalks. They’re perfect for viewing on the iPhone, and easy to obtain as podcasts. But the old iPhone treated them as audio files if you tried to move them into a playlist. You had to sync all the podcast episodes, and they can accumulate very quickly.
