Tutorial Thursday
Mac only 
When on a Windows computer one of the things I always did was make the Taskbar twice the normal height. The reason I did that was because it would then show the date in addition to the time, which is something I use quite regularly. Sure I could have hovered my mouse over the time to see the same information, but that often took more time than was necessary.
So naturally when I got my Mac I was surprised to see that I couldn’t do something similar with the Menubar. There is a checkbox in the time configuration options so that you can add/remove the day of the week, but there’s no setting to add the current date. Being the geek that I am I begun a quest for someway that I could get this, and as it turns out there’s a rather simple solution. The best part is that it requires no additional software! Here’s what my end result looks like:
Notice how the Menubar shows the date without needing to be clicked? Cool, huh? Here’s how you can add the date to the Mac Menubar clock:
