BwanaDik is an IP address (WAN and LAN) menu item. You may be asking yourself "why the heck does the world need another IP address application?" Well, it doesn't. But I did. I looked all over for an IP address app that met my needs, and never found one. So I wrote my own.

Here's what I wanted in an IP app:
• Small, simple, and resides in the menu bar
• Monitors my network for a good connection. If the connection is lost, let me know with an alert the second it comes back online.
• Quickly copy my WAN and LAN IP address to the menu bar.

The second point is the most important, which is really why I wrote this thing. See, I work at a coffee shop that has a really crappy DSL line, and an even crappier Airport Base Station. The connection comes and goes every 5 minutes. With BwanaDik, I can look at the menu bar and know right away if I can access the internet or not. Even better, when my network is back online, BwanaDik lets me know right away with an alert window.
