30 Boxes - FluidJuly 14th, 2008 by Narendra |
I stumbled upon Sylvain’s 30B fluid icon on Flickr and discovered that Fluid is a great tool for Mac OSX Leopard to create a stand alone instance of a website (like 30 Boxes!) as an application.
30 Boxes can be launched from your dock and performance seems normal except for the scroll wheel which doesn’t seem to behave the same way. You can download this graphic if you want to have the 30B logo as the app icon.
30 Boxes!

You’re logo is better than mine ! You should upload it in the Fluid group in Flickr.
If you want I can do it.

I’ve been using Mozilla’s Prism to do this for a few weeks now and love it. Prism works well for us non-Mac types and is a Firefox 3.0 Add-On (or a standalone app if you’re not running 3.0).

I’ve been using Mozilla’s Prism as a site-specific browser with 30B for a few weeks now and love it! Prism + RocketDock or ObjectDock works great for us non-Mac types.

Fluid and other SSBs is absolutely wonderful for the ever increasing number of web apps, sites like Digg, Base Camp, Twitter, Facebook, Google Reader, GMail and so forth. That does leave a big chunk out of our typical web browsing sessions after all it is called web browsing/surfing), however when you click onto a link that leaves that specific site whatever it may be)Fluid knows to leave it to your default web browser. For example if you had a specific Fluid browser for Digg and while in it you clicked a link to a YouTube video, Safari or whatever default browser you have would open to that site. One example of what a SSBs like Fluid can provide that a typical browser can’t is when used with Google Reader it shows how many unread articles you have similar to what NetNewsWire does, or when used with Facebook it will show you how many unread messages you have.
