A Mac-only app that switches up your desktop backgrounds so you don't have to.

something here I don't understand

Try System Preferences -> Desktop and Screensaver -> Desktop. Right there at
the bottom of that screen is an option to change your desktop at desired
intervals, my machine automatically changes it's desktop every day. This comes
with OSX (10.4), without any third party programs.

So what is the point of this program again?

The difference

You're mac will cycle thru desktops, but you have to have the on your machine.
This saves you the trouble of finding the good ones, which can be time
consuming.

What's the point?

It looks like it's all about getting access to these designer desktops, and any
other feeds you add to the program.

"Cool web apps for everyone"?

Yet the feature is about MAC-ONLY software. Yeah, there's a link to a generalized site at the start of the article, but Desktoptopia appears to cater to only 5% of the audience. Did I miss the link on their site to a Windows version, or did this article get posted to the wrong blog?

Icon container

Hey, can you show a bigger screenshot of your desktop? http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/i/bto/20070809/screengrab_350x233.jpg

It seems that you have an awesome container that lets you
scroll a list with your icons in the left part of your screen.

I am interested to get a software that can offer such a feature for a Windows desktop.
