Looky

Mac OS

Take a look at the demo video at: http://binaryformations.com/looky/videos.html

Silly or serious? Looky is both. Just click the icon in your menu bar and Looky brings up a live view from your Mac's camera. So why would you ever want to do such a thing? Well, here's just a few of the exciting and life-altering uses for Looky:

- For podcasts, online meetings, demos and presentations, Looky provides a quick, easy, and very inexpensive way to switch back and forth between the presenter and what's being presented on the desktop.

- Keep an eye on your kid when he's playing behind you while you're trying to get some work done.

- Use your Mac's camera as a mirror to check your makeup and hair or to make sure you wiped away the remnants of that Bottomless Bowl pasta special you had for lunch.

- Catch your boss trying to sneak up behind you while you are watching funny cat videos online.

- Indulge in a little vanity and use Looky to gawk at your gorgeous face. You know you're flippin' beautiful. No one will blame you.

- Maybe sometimes you just feel too lazy to turn around.

Here are some of the great features you will find in Looky:

- Looky sits in the menu bar at the top of your desktop and doesn't take up space in the dock.

- Looky stays on top of the other windows on your desktop when it's active.

- Four different preset window sizes for taking quick peeks at what's behind you.

- Float mode gives you a borderless window that you can resize and drag anywhere you want on your desktop.

- Stealth mode puts the video in a very small, unobtrusive window that can be tucked away in the corner of your desktop.

- You can change the transparency level of the window in float mode and stealth mode.

- Ego mode shows you a view that takes up your entire desktop.
