More and more I’m finding cool stuff. Cool useful stuff. Cool useful free stuff. Handy apps or websites that don’t cost a thing but have lots of value, at least to me.
So, instead of sitting here being mad about not being at the New Media Expo in Vegas this weekend, I will share my current favorites.
- Skitch. This one has actually been bumped to living in the dock for me I’m using it so much lately. I would, for sure, pay for this.
- Fluidapp. I’ve heard that SSBs will be a part of the next version of OSX. Until then, there is this and it’s awesome.
- Quicksilver. I’m lost without this. Let’s me work without thinking or looking at the keyboard. Stuff. Just. Happens.
- Viddler. Have you seen the new features? Check out my new player! If there was a “Pro” account (like flickr), I would totally pony up.
Sure there are other free apps out there for the Mac, but none of them wow me like these. If you don’t use them, I believe it would be well worth your time.
I’m a Fluidapp usin’ fool lately. Boy, what a handy app to have.
Currently using it for.
- TwitLive.tv
- Pandora
- Grooveshark
- Hahlo (for twitter)
- Google Docs
If you haven’t checked it out in a while, there are quite a few cool new features you might like. You can now embed the SSB’s so they ’stick’ to your desktop or set them up to run off of the menu bar.
If you are on a Mac and running Leopard, you should really give this app a go. It’s really slick.
