Aquatic screen saver

March 15, 2008

One of the unexpected virtues of computers is that they’ve brought about screen savers.

In the day there were flying toasters. Now you can have bright and realistic 3-D fish swimming across your screen while your computer sleeps. Marine Aquarium is one such elegant screensaver.

It has options such as an integrated date and clock, sound on or off, and choice of fishes.

The website name serenescreen.com is not far off, since it provides a surprisingly relaxing change of scene.
