RocketDock is genius, it’s really useful. Just make sure you move it away from it’s default position of being attached to the right side of your screen, it makes scrolling up and down in webpages harder. I keep mine fixed to the left of the screen, it’s much easier and doesn’t get in the way.
not actually, i have it in the right side and i have no problem scrolling (obviusly it has auto-hide enabled)
