From the dusty archives…

After getting my hands on a video converter gadget I’ve dragged out my collection of VHS tapes and the Sony VCR from the loft and have started digitising stuff for posterity. Here’s a clip of a ten-minute set from my stand-up comedy days, that I performed at the Comedy Store in London, way back in January 2002. Enjoy.

 

Multi Mac Monitor – Multi Mac Menubar

Wednesday March 10th 2010

If you use a Mac with multiple monitors, you’ll no doubt have noticed the distinct absence of the menubar on anything other than the main monitor.

 

Of course under the System Preferences you can designate on which monitor your menubar sits, but you are not able to duplicate the menu bar over multi monitors (without using a mirrored display).

 

However now there is a solution in the form of a promising new app called SecondBar which addresses the issue.

 

It’s early days for the app at the moment, but it is already stable enough for regular use, and well worth a look if you’ve been grappling around for a second menu.
