I have had a lot of people ask me about various apps that I use on my MacBook (especially for switchers).

Ben and I keep a list up on tada that we use to inform eachother when we find something else. It isn't exhaustive, but it has the meat of what we run. There is no real order here, and the apps that we live for (QuickSilver) are mixed with goofy things (Solitaire).

The current snap shot is below, but it is always changing. Are we missing anything major?

• IntelliJ IDEA
• Audacity (audio munging)
• The Gimp (Open Source Photoshop. GimpShop)
• iHook (Tag icons to any script/exe)
• Salling Clicker (Bluetooth phone interface)
• Fink
• Stuffit (for those that still send you .sit)
• Backup (Apple Backup System)
• Spam Sieve (Waiting to see if Mail.app is good enough. not yet, but maybe with training)
• Transmit (Pay: Killer FTP client)
• Transmission (bittorrent)
• Remote Desktop Client (Microsoft baybee)
• Q (QEMU for all)
• Lingon (launchd front-end)
• Hallon (bookmark any element)
• NetNewsWire (Favourite RSS Reader)
• NewsFire (RSS reader)
• Mail Plugin: Mail Tags (Add tagging to Apple Mail)
• Broadband Tuner
• Paparazzi (Capture Webpage Screenshots)
• Growl (Event notification)
• Clutter (alternative interface to iTunes; downloads album artwork)
• Password Retriever (Password Database for BOTH OS X and Windows)
• Chicken of the VNC (my new favorite VNC client)
• YourSQL (New MySQL OSX client)
• CocoaMySQL (dated but nice MySQL front-end)
• Fugu (SCP Front End)
• Solitaire XL (nice eye candy)
