NewsTicker, is only $5. Good feature set. It's a new release and there are a few features I'd like to see implemented, but the developer said he's working on them when I contacted him.

This is a "me too" post for NewsTicker.

There are some features that I would like to see added, but until I can figure out how to describe them articulately, I won't pester the developer ;)

I only just happened to download NT and was ready to pay for it until I noticed 25-45% CPU usage *all the time*...

NewsTicker -- one "flaw"...
Authored by: Cameroon on Oct 27, '04 06:46:15PM

One "flaw" is that the developer's website is, sorry, terrible to deal with if you are a) tired b) a very high rez monitor or c) have weak eyes.

Or if you want to copy & paste any text. The reason being is that everything on the site is a graphic.

I'm trying to figure out how to word a comment to the developer without offending anyone because the design is nice, but being shackled with graphics-as-text is painful.

NewsTicker -- me too

Maksim Rogov, the author of NewsTicker, is very responsive, NT is really dirt cheap, you can customize the look of NT quite a lot. Yes, there still are a few glitches, but if you consider that this app is out for just about two months, it's really great. I've tried other tickers (Tigger, Tickershock and one or two others) but none of them could really par up with NT. NT needs only one click for an action, TickerShock needs two, no-no.

By the time NT reaches 3.0 it will rule the Mac world ;-)

Cheers, Tom
is not married or whatever to Maksim Rogov, just a happy user :-D
