After seeing videos of this, I now want it. Since a Mini Mac simply won't blend in with my very select disposed soda cans and candy wrapper decor and that fact that I'm, ya know...poor, I'm wondering if there's a PC alternative out there. Surely there must be something similar for that whacky Windows minority. And if not, get cracking, elite GAF programming squad!

What the heck is this RSS screensaver thing. Anyone have a picture of it or something.

 

[SKluck]

Wow, that was hard.

I fail to to the impressiveness

Seems like it would get pretty freaking repetitive after a while...

I think I'll stick with a blank screen.

It is very nifty, but who sits around watching a screen saver?

Ever-changing RSS feeds...are repetitive? What is a blank screen then, exactly?

Hey, they made the 'After Dark' guys a nice chunk of change back in the day, so I'm sure somebody is.

If no one were watching, they'd all just be blank screens

 

[Mejilan]

Just saw the vid of it.

Lame.

I keep forgetting that not everyone actually uses their computer 100% of the time when they're sitting at their computer desk

A blank screen would be a real screen saver...

Where as a RSS feed would require you to sit there and watch your computer do nothing... I mean... seriously, if you're watching your computer, wouldn't it make more sense to be using it at the same time, getting the news you want rather than waiting for randomly pulled albeit pretty scrolling (but unreadable as a result (scrolls too fast for some)) news?

 

[pxleyes]

It would be a much better screen saver if the background was black and not those MS clouds.

 

[sprsk]

screen savers are so useless

IIRC, this was released to developers to show them the things that could be done with Quartz. It's not meant as a practical software app, although i'm sure some would use it for that.
