If you’re a web designer, it’s very likely that you spend a lot of time choosing the right color for your next big project: everyone knows that picking the right color palette is one of the most important thing when designing a website.
Indeed, color communicates different meanings.
So, what if you’re a web designer and you would like to have a mobile, useful color tool at the palm of your hands?
As you may have understood reading MacStories, I’m in love with Twitter (I’m @storiesofmac) For this reason, I’m always searching for the best client around, hoping to find “that new one” which integrates all the features I would like to see in a Twitter app: slick UI, multi-timelines support, Growl, hashtags, url shortening and so on..
To help you in finding the best Twitter client around, here’s a list of 40 Twitter clients for your Mac. To download them, simply click on the link.
Obviously, I haven’t tested all of these apps, but I’m planning to write in-depth reviews for many of them.
Enjoy! :)
I’m totally addicted to Twitter: in a matter of a few months, it has become my social network of choice, being a great place where I daily find interesting Mac / Web-design stuff I could share with my followers. Moreover, there are tons of Photoshop cool resources around, and that’s just perfect to me.
But anyway, this is my Twitter (remember, Twitter is what you make it!), and everyone knows that tweeting is a very personal experience, so I don’t want to be an example.
On my Mac, Tweetie is my favourite client: slick interface, stable, multi-timelines support, twitter search, dead-simple. It perfectly fits to my needs.
But what on my iPhone?
I love collecting fonts. Well, I love collecting well-done fonts: I spend a lot of time searching for the right one, depending of what I want to achieve in Photoshop. On the other hand, I love iTunes. Amazing from a user interface standpoint (although written in Carbon) Apple did a great job in creating an all-in-one application for muisc, movies and apps.
What if we can get a similar result..for fonts managing?
Here’s Fontcase.
Following my Read it Later review a few days ago, I wanted to know who was behind this amazing idea. Nate Weiner from Idea Shower, was kind enough to share some thoughts with MacStories.
Here’s our interview.
It’s not a secret that there’s so much interesting stuff on the web that you just can’t read it in one afternoon. Or in a whole day. Tutorials, reviews, previews, there’s a lot of pages I would like to read just as I discover them..but I can’t.
And that’s the main concept behind Read it Later: save your pages for future reading sessions keeping them easily accessible too. So, with just one click on the “Read it Later” button, you’ll be able to check that page again whenever / wherever you’d like. Here’s my review of Read it Later Pro for iPhone.
If you have a Mac and you’re a web designer / blogger, it’s very likely that you’ve heard of RapidWeaver: it’s one of the most famous WYSIWYG editor around, it has a lot of features and a great support by RealMac Software. While many Mac users still use Apple’s iWeb and just feel comfortable with it, RapidWeaver’s slowly becoming popular, thanks to its simplicity and great UI.
Anyway, I would like to share my thoughts about Flux, a great alternative to RapidWeaver which I found in my “late night Mac apps discovering” sessions.
Here’s my review.
Bookmarklets are small javascript scripts that can be saved as in a normal bookmark, you just have to drag & drop them in the bookmarks toolbar, either if you use Safari, Firefox or Opera.
Here’s a list of top 25 bookmarklets I found really,really useful.
Just drag them to your toolbar to start using them!
The first time I tried Daylite.app for Mac it seemed too complex to me: I thought that it was surely very useful for teams of 20-30 people and more, but to me, a single blogger without any sort of team, it was just too stuff in one single window. Then, one of my Twitter followers said ”What? You don’t use Daylite? Go try it!” and I decided that it should get another chance.
It was worth of it.
Daylite is a business productivity manager designed to help you manage you business, either if you are a single or a team. It has got features like Projects, Calendars, Tasks, Notes and Contacts: basically, everything you would ever need to organize your business “the Mac way”.
