Geek on this...


Mac OS X Hints has published a list of Tiger features that can invoke slow-motion display by simply pressing the shift when activating them. So, for example, if you hold down the shift key while clicking the Dashboard icon in the dock, it will zoom slowly into view.

Here's their list of slow-mo geeky GUI goodness:

Opening Dashboard
Switching between widget panels
Closing a widget
Hiding Dashboard
Opening the widget panel
Closing the widget panel
Clicking Safari's RSS icon

This is a really cool effect. It's completely useless from a practical point of view, but it's flipping cool nonetheless...

What're your favorite "stupid Tiger" tricks?
