If you are like me and like to keep your documents and projects neatly orgainzed then you will really like this application Dock Spaces. This app allows you to have up to 10 different docks and even tailor them for each Space you have arranged in Spaces. Going one step further, if your dock has too many icons close together it can be difficult to see. There is a way to group like icons making them easier to find.
The Dock Spaces application allows you to swap the dock for one that you have preset anytime you want from the menu bar. This will improve your productivity, and completely reinvent your user interface experience. Integrating this with Spaces will offer you a different dock depending on your Space selected.
It is also possible to seperate icons by creating a blank space between them. This will allow you to group like icons that are related to find faster. For example, you could group the iWork icons together then a space. You will have to run this commend below in Terminal (Applications > Utilities):

Google Chrome has finally reached the Beta status, thus being released for public use.I have become a true Safari fan since it was upgraded with Snow Leopard, but upon first use I can see that Chrome for Mac is performing very fast.

Google does not support plug-ins for the Mac version of Chrome yet, but it will support Tell me what you think of the new browser release, and I am sure someone will mention the fact that the great bookmarking feature is not available for Mac just yet.
When beginning with web design or development you will need some sort of code editor to write the website. From there, you will also need software to refine images, a web browser to test your design, tools to store code clips, and lastly an FTP client. I have in the past relied heavily on Adobe Dreamweaver, as I am a big fan of the entire web design Adobe Suite. But, when it comes to writing a blog I find it cumbersome to write PHP for some reason in Dreamweaver.
