Most of those who use RapidWeaver to design websites already know the value of YourHead's plugin tools for extending design in useful directions. Stacks is a startling and brilliant innovation; it provides the user a leap in page design capability. Stacks is easy to use and produces superb results. Isaiah Carew, the developer of Stacks and other YourHead plugins, is meticulous in his work and that attention to detail shows in the way Stacks was conceived and in the way it works. I am using Stacks to create pages for courses that I teach; Stacks allows me to combine schematics, photos, and descriptive text in ways that are attractive and effective in displaying information. Still in beta as I write, the plugin is stable and the initial documentation and screencasts will get a new user up and running in short order. If you are a user of RapidWeaver, or if you are considering RapidWeaver as a website design tool, give Stacks a close look. I think you will immediately begin imagining page designs that Stacks will enable you to undertake.

I am a university professor and I make use of a growing number of YouTube and Google videos (public lectures on political topics, for example). I tried out a number of applications for locating and downloading the videos. iTubeX Ultimate topped my list for ease of use. I tried it for a few days and then purchased it. iTubeX Ultimate's developer continues to improve its functionality (today's release includes the ability to search sources from within the application--nice touch). I recommend giving it a try. It's a first-rate application.

iClipboard is working without a hitch for me now. After a rocky start, which was brief in any case, this version of the app has hit the mark. I appreciate the fixes put out by the folks at Chronos. They were quick to respond to the problems and the inconvenience on my end was minor. Give iClipboard a look.
