So, Mac aficionados, what are your favorite applications?

Hello my dear friends aka Mac aficionados, here's a question I always wanted to ask. 

What are your favorite MAc applications? Not necessarily something you use work work, but rather for AFTER (if there is such time for us!)

What sparked my interest especially, was an email I received from macUpdate:

there's a sale going on right now, (till 22nd of September), where you can buy 10 different applications  for 49! I hid my credit card from myself, because my to-do list is a laundry list right now, yet if I get these applications, I will forget it and play with those new toys. BTW, the first 20 000 buyers are given 2 more applications for free. Over 13 K people bought the bunch. 

Anyway, to enable you a bit: in the bunch, you can get these nifty aps:

 

  • Toast 10 Platinum (that one I have already -  WONDERFUL, of course) 
  • Live Interior 3D (I WANT IT!  Now!)
  • My living desktop (intriguing!)
  • Cashculator (manage finances - of course I need it!)
  • Espionage (high security encription tool! So neat!)
  • Backup Pro (self explanatory)
  • Share Tool (access Bonjour Services - I have no idea what the heck BOTH of these are, but like them already anyway)
  • Concentrate (eliminates distractions - I don't know how... But that's what I NEED RIGHT NOW as well)
  • MindNote Pro (structures Ideas - I have a scatterbrain sometimes, with ideas zooming around like angry bees - I NEED THAT TOOL)
  • Voila 3 (organize and share videos - that's neat for blogs and youtube, I guess)
Now the 2 extras: Compartments (home inventory ap)
                        Vitamin R (personal productivity tool - for FOCUSING -for me...)
 
OK these are the mighty 10 (or 12), waving at me, seducing me and leaving me restless.

You can get these from the site http://www.mupromo.com/?ref=8606. Disclaimer: I'm not affiliated with the sale, nor will I get any points, cash / check payments, presents or anything in reward if all of you go there and buy this. 

Now, back to my topic. From the tools and applications I already have, one that is very neat, user friendly and just plain kewl (OK, agreed, all Mac aps are like that) is GarageSale. Made by the same company that created GarageBand, iwascoding. 
This software helps you sell on eBay. Create listings, add pictures (they also offer free picture hosting, so the software pays for itself in the long run. Or a short run, if you sell a lot of specific stuff where several pictures are a must)

So, if anyone with a mac is toying with the idea to sell on eBay - GarageSale is da bomb. The newer version also comes with GarageBuy - helps you spend the money you just earned selling, by "helping you" shop eBay. Neat nevertheless.

OK, any other enablers here, recommending their favorite toys?

Have a great weekend!

I have a 25-year-old policy against anything made by Apple, unless it's the Apple that makes The Beatles music available to the world.
