There’s an application every Mac geek can’t live without: the Terminal. Developed with hardcore users in mind, the terminal is the best way to get things done “the hard way”, via text commands.
Now, Terminal is not the best looking Mac application. Indeed, it’s pretty simple and basic. Outdated, many people would say.
Wouldn’t it be great to have a gorgeous, system-wide terminal?
Writing this article has been difficult. The fact is, I couldn’t stand Yojimbo until a few weeks ago. And I swear, I wanted to test it, buy it, become a Yojimbo die hard fan…but I couldn’t find a real use for it. Two downloads, two “move file file to trash”.
Now, this article is focused on the total awesomeness of Yojimbo.
What? Yeah, I changed my mind.
You’ve probably already heard of Simplenote: it’s a note taking application for iPhone which syncs with its online server and each note you take on the mobile device will then be available through the web interface.
Simple and straighforward.
John Gruber also showed his love for Simplenote back in July.
So, what if we could have a desktop client for Mac? Here comes JustNotes, a beta app I’ve discovered the last week.
I recently made the big step and started using Safari instead of Firefox for my tasks. This has been a big change for me, and I still have to figure out many things to find the perfect workflow.
Anyway, there was something I needed in the first place: a plugin to manage Delicious bookmarks. I mean, I add dozens of new bookmarks everyday, and while Firefox has its official plugin, Safari is still unsupported by Delicious.
Fortunately, I stumbled upon DeliciousSafari which is one of the best Safari plugins I’ve tried so far.
Have you ever wished to run any application on your Mac in full screen mode? Now, thanks to Ian Henderson, you can.
Indeed, Megazoomer has been updated to support Snow Leopard, and it really rocks.
There’s no doubt that QuickLook is one of the best things about Mac OS X: it provides easy and quick previews for any kind of file. However, QuickLook has a few major drawbacks: if you switch to another application the QuickLook window hides. Even with Exposè, you can’t retrieve the preview you opened. And, you can’t use more than one QuickLook.
Yesterday I stumbled upon this new app, DropLook ,which seems very interesting.
As I said many times, I believe Delicious bookmarks are the best way to save, archive and organize the web pages you save for future reference. I also wrote a roundup about the 7 best Mac apps that brings delicious.com to your desktop, be sure to read it if you missed.
As you can see from the roundup, Delibar was in. I’ve been a beta tester of this app for a few months, and now that it has gone public I can finally review it.
I was reading my morning feeds when I stumbled upon this new application: Waveboard.
As the name suggests, Waveboard is a Google Wave desktop client for Mac, still in beta.
