Monitoring Connection to the Network

Buzzword stores your documents on a server and relies on your being connected to the Internet. It has facilities for protecting your work in the event that you lose your network connection. A small icon in the lower right corner, called the Synchronator, shows you the current status of your connection. If you position your mouse over the Synchronator, a small flag indicates whether you’re connected.

Note: The Synchronator also spins when Buzzword is communicating with the server.
