Software Review: GhostIt

| | Comments (2)

   This time around, I think I'll review some Windows software. Unusual, I know.
   The software in question is one I use strangely often on my "Gaming PC". GhostIt does basically one thing and does it well. Its function is to turn windows transparent. When they are transparent, they remain on top but will not react to anything but a special hot-key combination or via the GhostIt taskbar icon, of course.
   This is rather useful, as I've found. For instance, you could find something useful browsing the web and wish the interact with another app in some manner. Thus, you could simply make the browser window transparent and then work in the application you want, without losing sight of your browser. Kinda handy, eh?
   There was a Mac OS X equivelant for this, but I've forgotten it at the moment. I'll remember it later...
