The low-down
Top left: that’s DateLine, a handy visual indicator of the month and any events that are coming up. Underneath is the Adium contact list showing who’s online to chat.
Bottom left: I wrote a script which pulls the most popular 15 torrents from ThePirateBay.org. GeekTool puts the info right on my desktop and updates it every 15 minutes.
Menu bar (left to right): Adium (multi-IM client), Skype, smcFanControl (to control the fans on my laptop when it gets a little hot), DropBox (for sharing files and remote backup), LittleSnitch (stops apps calling home), Growl (displays app notifications in a unified way) using the “iPhone popup/Noir” style, the usual gubbins…
Dock: the theme is Dark Glass (sorry, don’t remember where I found it). In order: Finder, Dash, Settings, Firefox, Skype, Adium, Transmission (torrent client), Interarchy (FTP client), iPhoto, Aperture, Spotify, iTunes, MixMeister Fusion (for creating mixes), Quicktime Player, VLC, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Premiere, Color Picker Pro, VMWare Fusion, Microsoft Entourage, Microsoft Word, Things (to-do list), TeamViewer, Tweetie (twitter client), TextMate (text editor), Terminal, Activity Monitor.
On the right of the separator I like to have Applications (Grid view), Downloads (Fan view, order by Date Created) and Home (Grid view).
Wallpaper: download it here.
