Twingly Screensaver

Twingly has two screensavers which visualize the Blogosphere, a browser based and a desktop based. We do not maintain the desktop version and the web version is still experimental, but feel free to try them out!

Introduction

Twingly screensaver is visualising the global blog activity in real time. Forget RSS readers where you see only what you're interested in. With Twingly screensaver you get a 24/7 stream of all (viewer discretion advised) blog activity, straight to your screen.

To use the screensaver you need a PC with Windows and a graphics card supporting OpenGL. Enable Asian language support in Windows, there's lot of that stuff in the blogosphere.

We do not maintain the Windows-screensaver and we do not support it, but you are free to download it and try it out. We are aware of the issue that you can not use it as a system screensaver on more modern versions of Windows.

HOW TO INSTALL

  • Download the installation files by clicking the download button.
  • Unzip the files and run setup.exe. .NET download might be required.
  • For the best experience, try forcing anti-aliasing on your graphics card.

TO USE TWINGLY AS THE SYSTEM SCREENSAVER

  • Right click the desktop.
  • Select "Properties".
  • Select the tab "Screen saver".
