Desktop Meme

Toast is propagating a new visual meme—show your desktop. So here's my desktop at work:


Yeah, that's right—dual widescreens, baby.

The left side is the 20" monitor, the right side is the 20" iMac it's attached to. My "Dock" is not normally visible unless I run the cursor down there, but there'd be nothing to look at if I didn't show it to you.

This, of course is what it looks like with nothing open. Once the day gets rolling, you won't see a bit of that gray background...Usually there's a bunch of icons trashing up the place, but I had just cleaned that crap up at the end of the day yesterday—this is tidier than normal.

I'll do my home (work) computer tonight.

In both cases, the background is plain gray, because I do a lot of photo-editing and color correction, and crazy backgrounds are distracting. My screensavers are slideshows of pics of the kids.

Oh, I figure I'll do Toast one better and let you see the full scale of my disorganizational capabilities—here's my desk:


It looks much worse/overwhelming in person, trust me.

UPDATE: Here is my home computer, which is really a work computer (tons of freelance). I noticed tonight what an abomination my desktop is—littered with icons—and realized I should share...
