Hi Tom,

Thanks, that sounds like a good example.  I'll take a look at it.

Any others out there?

Hi Dethe,

You asked:
Are there any examples people would like to see? What would actually be *useful* to show in the status bar? ITunes and clocks have been done to death, but I'm sure there's something that would be nice to have which would make a good example.

How about a network activity icon, something like what's in the Windows tray? Currently, you have to open the Network preferences panel to see whether you've got a network connection. It sometimes takes a few minutes to get a DHCP address from my office network when I connect first the laptop in the morning, and I've wished there was a way to see easily when the network comes up (besides seeing whether I can load a web page.)
