Hello Everyone,
This is my first tutorial EVER! Please Rate and Comment to let me know how I'm doing. It would be much appreciated.

This video is a step-by-step tutorial to teach you how to create basic WebApps on your Mac using Automator.

All you'll need is you:
- The latest version of OSX Lion (10.7+)
- Internet connection

I hope this is helpful to people wanting to get the most out of the $30 they spent/wasted on Lion. ;)

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to let me know in the comment section below. Take Care!

  • Nice tutorial, really easy to follow! I dont think people even know about this awesome feature of Lion! quick question though, the pop up app always stays on top of other windows. Do you know how to fix this problem?

  • @theincredible7 Thanks & excellent question! I was trying to figure this out myself, unfortunately I haven't found anything that pushes the popup window to the background, except another popup window. I'm not saying that it isn't possible yet, I'll continue to do research on the subject and post something when/if I find it.

    I recommend looking into the Fluid App I mentioned in the video. They have a short video preview on their homepage. I'll add the link in description. Has more features :)

see all
