Lorem ipsum whaaat??? Have you ever seen that funky latin text on a site or template and wondered wtf those people are on? It’s just traditional filler text that designers use when trying out page layouts, text formatting, etc. Trust me, it’s much better than copy/pasting one word or phrase over and over, gives a more natural looking….flow…..or something.

I love capitalism and capitalism loves me. I love capitalism and capitalism loves me. I love capitalism and capitalism loves me. I love capitalism and capitalism loves me. I love capitalism and capitalism loves me. I love capitalism and capitalism loves me. I love capitalism and capitalism loves me.

vs.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exerci tation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis autem vel eum iriure.

See what I mean?

ANYWAYS, there are lots of ways to get the lorem ipsum text, but MY favorite is a handy dashboard widget I found called Dolor sit amet. You really can’t get any simpler than this;

All you do is select characters, words or paragraph, then type how many you want (e.g. 4 paragraphs, 50 characters, 10 words) click the ‘to clipboard’ button and presto! It’s on your clipboard ready to be pasted into whatever you’re working on.

I love it, and you should too. Because I said so.

Do you take a lot of screen shots? I do. I take many many screen shots everyday. Actually, I don’t. That was a total lie. I do take a lot of screen shots though. Luckily I found the best dashboard widget EVER! It’s called Screenshot Plus! It gives you simple one-click control over taking screen captures of either the entire screen, a timed screen capture, a capture of just a specific window you have open, a capture of a dashboard widget, or a cross hair to drag a section to capture.

It’s pretty sexy looking too.

The easiest way to install dashboard widgets is to use Safari to browse to the widget page. When you download widgets while using Safari, it automatically installs them for you!
