Saw this whilst browsing lifehacker.com and decided to try the design. Geektool is a pretty simple program, but rather inefficient because you cannot group items together and move them as a group. Individual items must be moved and aligned independently. For instance, code for hour and minutes are separate, and ram free and ram used are also separate and you have to manually align them. Props to YFA for pointing out that I could use the X&Y coordinates built into the program for easier alignment. Although its a neat setup, I’m not sure how often I actually see my desktop as there are typically tons of windows stacked on it.
