- Active Desktop 1.043, No More Desktop — Do you really love that boring Windows «desktop» concept? I personally don?t. Even if I could believe there were desktops in size of a stool, I still wouldn?t believe that a handful of icons are the only things I could place on my desktop. I want some more of dynamics, I want some more of information, and I want some more of beauty, after all! If you feel yourself the same way…
- 3D Drunken Clock Screensaver — The corporate culture has its own idol; Time is the name. «Time is money», right? — However, it is much more than just money. Time is reputation; if you don’t value the punctuality, you don’t value your good name. Time is command playing; when you are in production relay race, a single latecomer in your team may lead the entire plan to the crash. It would not be a gross…
- Oparin Clock screensaver. A Sudden Invention — Some people (those with scanty imagination) like to say «nothing in today’s world can be invented». They are not original. Back in 1899, Charles Duell of the U. S. Office of Patents said, «Everything that can be invented, has been invented.» Now we know he was wrong. Thus, we can suppose today’s skeptics are wrong too, and there are still many areas for amazing inventions. Here…
- Dolphin Aqua Life 3D Screensaver 2.9. Ocean on Your Desk. — Times when «screensaver» programs were actually used for screen saving (i.e. for prevention of «phosphor burn-ins») are way back in the past. It is no longer a goal for screen savers. Now we have screensavers that demonstrate one’s humor and art capabilities, screensavers that stimulates one to work hard and screensavers that help one rest and relax. And — one the most precious types of screensavers are…
- Spring Simulation 1.03. Physics in Electronics. — Science of Physics and Electronics are in the strange relation. On one side, Electronics is, certainly, only part and derivative of Physics, and the first cannot exist without the latter. One the other side, in the urban human being’s everyday life, day after day there is less room for the simple physics and more room for the complex electronics. Why would I have to think about the boiling process if my electric kettle boils water…
- Sonar Screensaver 1.00, Listen The Ocean — In the calm and quiet world of ocean, sounds are very special. The ocean’s own life often uses the sound «radar» for navigating through its dark deep waters by «listening» or even doing the «active detection» (sending sounds and listening what they’ve bounced from). This idea is also utilized in human-made water and underwater vessels; modern «sound radars» — Sonars — are the…
- Galaxy Journey 3D Screensaver 1.3, Falling Through The Space — The deep space, with its stars and galaxies, asteroids and planets, is an incredible beautiful sight. Unfortunately, this sight is not for eyes of most of human beings: we can see the smallest part of the beauty, not only because of Earth atmosphere and lights of cities, but because of leaving far away from galaxy centers. There are special men like astronomers who can see something, but they typically can’t value what they see…
- Spring River Screensaver — Climatologists around the world may have a point stating that global warming is not a myth any more. Winters are getting shorter and milder, the crisp of snow under your feet is becoming a rare occasion and the feeling of relief and joy upon sensing the first blow of spring air after a cold, snowy winter is something we start dreaming about in November. If you feel like seeing the awakening of nature right now on your…
- Fairy Christmas Day 3D Screensaver 1.0, Saving Screen, Saving Mood — Screen-savers became popular in the good old days when they addressed an important, even vital, problem of — you’ll laugh! — saving the screen. In those sad old days, CRT screens had to change their picture frequently enough to prevent pixel burnout. Those sad times are long gone, and nowadays screensavers are just an entertainment: when you aren’t using your computer, why should it look like a boring workplace…
