It's just sort of a spillover for things that I don't really need, but also don't really want to close. For my own sake, I've stopped using Tweetdeck, and for the past few months, I haven't really replaced it's spot on my 'secondary' display with anything.

The big screen was for Digg dot com, the thinking went, the smaller was for Twitter dot com. On the MacBook display I had, for many years, just one program running: Tweetdeck. On the big display I have an arrangement of windows that simultaneously lets me look at the Digg CMS, a preview of this website you know and love and our workplace chat program. In front of me sits a 27″ Apple Thunderbolt Display, and just to the left sits a 15″ 2014 Retina MacBook Pro. But first, I have to talk about my desk.įor the past several years, my desk setup at the office has remained largely unchanged.

I would like to talk about music visualizers, those wild and trippy things that came loaded with your favorite media player of choice back in the early '00s.

As streaming services, and the notion of subscribing to a catalog of music rather than owning, takes over, we've lost a crucial relic from the heyday of the media player.
