Have you worked on computers with desktops so junky that you can’t make out the image underneath all of the files?

Desktoday puts all of these files and folders in a folder with today’s date.

Our resident technologist Alan Home talks about the importance of having a pristine desktop in my interview with him on workflow optimization:

Where I used to work they treated  the desktop like a dumping ground.  The desktop is the worst place to throw files, specifically image files because every time you go to the desktop it has to look to its thumbnails file and and its resource forks and all of that and determine, ‘what’s the preview image of this? What’s the thumbnail of this?’ and try and render it out.  And when you’ve got a couple hundred files on your desktop that you were gonna get to eventually, it takes resources to render all of these previews and thumbnail images.

So, if you’re tired of your boot drive creaking and moaning under the weight  of clutter check out this FREE app.

At least you’ll finally be able to see your image of an enchanted unicorn forest.
