Cool screensaver

[Mike Lewis]

I don't think this has been posted here before, but I saw this really cool screensaver on a guy's computer at work.

It's at http://st.flightlookup.com/StarDownload/ss.html

It shows all of the StarAlliance flights in real-time in their positions around the globe. It's very cool.

Installing the Star Alliance Screen Saver will also install the Star Alliance FlightLookup Auto Update Conduit.

I was going to download the software until I saw that. Someone who is more computer savvy than me please let me know what that conduit does!

Is that just to update where the planes are?

I just installed the ssaver...and the conduits, the "conduits" are used to update plane information, since it is displayed in "real time" it gives you the option of auto-update or manual update...you choose which is best for you....

Its a pretty neat screen saver, but I think i'll stick to the pictures of my daughter!
