Busy is an application which creates a fake progress bar.
With this "tool" you can look busy when in fact you are being lazy. This is by far the most useful program for anyone who wants to take a little break at work while the boss thinks you are being really busy.
Busy allows you to create all kind of actions. If the predefined ones aren't enough then you can create your own custom action for the progress bar. The other thing that you can set in the 'Preferences' panel is the name of the file you want to "process".
I had so much fun testing this application that is doing nothing. I was thinking how cool it is to launch this and look busy while you are waiting for your Mac to finish its job whenever you want a little time out.
Pluses: this is one of the best time wasting applications. Another thing that I like is the fact that you won't have to pay for this.
Drawbacks / flaws: frequent use of this application can cause addiction.
In conclusion: if you are a really busy person in doing nothing then this tool is a must have.
