DontDim. A tiny app™

DontDim is an AppleScript I whipped together that turns off screen dimming if you're browsing a video sharing website (like YouTube), because it's annoying to tap the mouse every 15 minutes. Once you browse away from the site, the preference is turned back on. If you're curious about what its doing, or you want to edit the URLs that trigger the script, you can open the app in Script Editor. Out of the box, it supports YouTube, DailyMotion and video.google.com.

Adding Keychain support would be useful, but apparently keychain scripting is wanting. Suggestions welcome.
