I am just curious, I just went through all the screen savers I have and noticed that there were quite a few. Currently, I am using Fliqlo, a full screen digital clock display.

What is everyone else using?

Interesting question, though my answers not. My screensaver is the Windows XP logo that jumps around the screen. I've never bothered to change it because, well, the screen savers there for when I'm not using the computer.

Toaster Clone based on the original flying toaster screensaver.

Ditto Fliqlo, its beautiful and functional at the same time.

I use the RSS visualizer that streams the feed from problogger.

As a new blogger I like to get tips and tricks

I just have it set to randomly display images from My Pictures folder.

I am currently using uniqlock. I saw this screensaver on a youtube video and loved the concept. Its a mix of dance/music/clock created from Japan.

I used to have my work, home & 3 laptops set to use SETI@home to help scientists identify signs of extraterrestrial life, then I set it to help with the cancer research. Something I might set my screensavers to again as its quite a worthy cause.

The Fliglo clock looks pretty neat too, I wasn't able to access the link you provided but I found a site that provides a lot of the recent screensavers

I don't use one, and I never have. When I'm not at the computer, my MacBook Pro's display gets dimmed to it's minimum, and the computer stays on 24/7. I find screen savers to be annoying and the MBP often crashes when waking from sleep mode.

I'm looking at uniqlock for the first time and it is crazy awesome.

Could anyone suggest some nice looking screen savers that don't crunch much cpu or gpu?

My first release imac G5 17" likes to crank up the fans at the slightest hint of processor usage, and they're noisy.

I use my own photographs, and always have.

Lancer, Alvin: I'm using uniqlock too! I love it.

Another good one is Polar Clock if you are into the visual clocks.

I wish I could find more animated screensavers like uniqlock, it seems like most screensavers are just slideshows which I hate. If anyone has any recommendations, let me know!

I have no screensaver. If I leave my computer long enough for one to be required then it puts itself to sleep.

no screensaver. Monitor will switch off after 15 minutes, unless h'm watching a movie or two ^-^
Beside I've noticed from the above post, that some use the screensaver to gather information through rss or YouTube. my question now is: "Do you actually wait 10 minutes till the screensaver comes up?" and what if you accidentally move the mouse, you start over again?

I use electric sheep available here.

It's a pretty neat screensaver. It is entirely random and connects to a main server to constantly download new changes and updates. I highly recommend it, very beautiful!

If you do download it, be aware that it can take up to 48 hours for the first set to download and display :)

the forest one...for now

I am sooo looking for topics like this one!
I hate to see all those 3d aquarium screensavers... I'm looking for some cool unique stuff...

If anyone should like a clock like the polar clock screensaver mentioned above, but finds it a little too crowded, you should try analogy screensaver, which is an ingeniuous mix of digital and analog clock...

the uniqlock is brilliant, altough a bit strange for my workplace :)

I put my screen right to sleep now, but before I just used Apple's default rotation.

I have my screen set to dim 50% after an hour and turn off completely after 2 hours.

I like to see if anything is popping up on my screen and dim is better than nothing.
