Product Description:

MediaDock is a simple companion to Apple's Dock, providing a place for mounted media such as CDs, DVDs, Disk Images, and Hard drives to reside. Just like the dock, MediaDock allows you to enable hiding as well as pinning with a twist - centered pinning keeps the dock centered on it's side of the screen; top pinning keeps the top left corner of MediaDock fixed, meaning mounts and unmounts cause the bottom of MediaDock to move. Why? Because you may want MediaDock to be 3/4 up the left hand side of the screen instead of all the way up to the menubar - dragging the border makes the choice in positioning yours. MediaDock gives you easy access to applications scuh as iTunes and iDVD, as well as directory access to files and folders on mounted media.
What still needs to be done: 1) Allow folders to be opened, not just documents and applications 2) Allow user defined media players instead of just apple defaults 3) Find a way to make other applications respect MediaDock space (possible?)

MediaDock ReviewIt keeps mounting itself... - Version: 1.0, 5/14/2003 01:24PM PST

...and I don't like that. I don't know if its me, or the program, but I don't find enough documentation to explain it. Every time I run Media Dock, a disk image of media dock mounts...annoying. Other than that, I like it. It has helped me clean up my desktop. (I'd like something similar for my "real" desktop :-)

MediaDock Reviewspiffty - Version: 1.0, 5/12/2003 06:43PM PST

really good for a 1.0 release. Few minor problems like the menu for some items in the dock not responding right away and sometimes the dock doesn't hide, but still really neat and very useful.

I'm really looking forward to future releases of this product seeing as it has so much potential ^_^

Things i'd like to see:
  • magnification of items in the dock
  • dock response to right-click (control-click) w/o having to click empty space on dock first
