Deskloops - Spin your windows

Imagine yourself at the center of a virtual loop where all the windows you use are spread out around you. Whichever window you need to view can be centered in front of you with a click of a button.

Take this idea and zoom into your pc environment. With Deskloops, all the windows you have open are aligned side by side in a loop-like order. No more countless windows arranged one on top of the other in a confusing manner. You can access all the information you need and navigate through it easily.

The loop can be rotated clockwise and counterclockwise simply by moving the cursor to the edge of the screen and using right click.

Think of the loop as a dynamic rubber band; with each newly opened window the loop automatically grows. With every closed or minimized window, the loop becomes smaller.

Anytime you want to return to the desktop, double click on Deskloops tray icon and the windows will shift aside in one swift motion


takes a little getting used to, but so far it's really pretty cool...seems stable so far and works with WB5

This looks kinda cool, I just wonder how much memory it will eat up when you have all those windows open? Noticed any performance issues?

it doesn't seem too bad, around 10megs with a couple of windows open, and up to about 15megs with seven...i got 1gb, so might as well use it when messing around...i would probably unload with photo or video editing...i disabled the animation in the middle...it's nice to choose the window from the taskbar, then watch the windows revolve around...it seems pretty smooth

I may have to give it a try, I really hate Beta's of anything, LoL, probably from so many trashing my system in my early days of computing, very traumatic..LoL

Thanks for the heads up Liquidguru....

I like betas!
And I like how you can save and restore loops with that program. It wasn't as much the looping feature, but rather being albe to get back to previous setups.

Make sure you read the forums over there ....it sounds as though this version is a tad buggy on certain systems and/or setups...

Great idea though, and I hope it becomes successful for the inventor.

Sounds cool. Too bad no screenshots.
