Spaces, a new feature in Leopard, allows all Mac users to become much more efficient in their desktop space and usage.

As a Linux user, I use compiz-fusion with my 8-sided ‘cube’ so keep all of my programs organized and allow me to be as efficient as possible with my desktop space.

How do you organize your apps?? I keep Thunderbird on one space, my instant messenger app on another, my music program on a third, and my internet apps on the rest.

Wouldn’t it be easy to keep all of these apps organized if I could just say ‘this app only opens on this space, and this other app opens on another space’? Well, you can do just that, and this is how to assign apps to open in specific spaces:

Step 1: Open ‘System Preferences’ (you can get to it my clicking the apple in the top left of your screen)

Step 2: Click Expose & Spaces

Step 3: Select the Spaces tab at the top (red) and then click on the ‘+’ symbol (green)

Step 4: After clicking the ‘+’ symbol a window will open that will allow you choose a specific application. Choose the one you want to assign to a specific space.

Step 5: Once you have chosen an application (and clicked apply) the app will be listed on the Expose & Spaces windows. In the picture above (the mail.app) is an example of an app that was chosen. Under the ‘Space’ bar you will be able to choose which space you want your app to open on. In this case the Mail.app will always open on Space 1.

Apple has now added a great new feature to the Apple TV. You will now be able to buy movies directly through the Apple TV interface. With Apple releasing new movies for download the same day they are released on DVD, the iTunes market share will grow even bigger. People will become even more interested in buying and using the Apple TV now that you can just download the newest movies instead of going to the store and buying them.

If Apple were to somehow create a deal so that iTunes could offer the movie before it was released on DVD, I would definitely buy more movies from iTunes and I might even consider buying an Apple TV so that I could watch them on my big screen.
