Dropbox has basically ditched its bland, text-based menu for a graphic, button-based interface. The taskbar drop down menu with basic status information has been replaced with an infinitely more practical listing of recent file activity, complete with a (!) share button. ANd if you miss the old menu (the one on the right) you can stil get it with a good old-fashioned right/Ctrl-click. This is hardly a revolution, but it sure is easier on the eyes. [Dropbox via TNW]
