Setting up something new gives you a real chance to try out things you’ve wanted to for ages and I have to admit to being slightly addicted to that at the moment.

Current toy of choice : Fluid

” Are you a Gmail, Facebook, Campfire or Pandora fanatic? Do you have 20 or more browser tabs open at all times? Are you tired of some random site or Flash ad crashing your browser and causing you to lose your (say) Google Docs data in another tab?

If so, Site Specific Browsers (SSBs) provide a great solution for your WebApp woes. Using Fluid, you can create SSBs to run each of your favorite WebApps as a separate desktop application. Fluid gives any WebApp a home on your Mac OS X desktop complete with Dock icon, standard menu bar, logical separation from your other web browsing activity, and many other goodies.”

It does totally what it says on the tin, I now have Fluid apps set up for Gmail, Basecamp, Highris, Pulse, Freshbooks. I’m sure one for tumblr is on the way any second now.
