Thanks so much, basically all the remaining programs i need for my dj stuff and my organization and my fun experimental stuff were all here! rele appreciate your work! thanks!
some more FREEWARE application reviewed would not have harmed i guess
Is this just 50 ads for commercial mac software?
@Anon It depends on how you see it.
@Anon Probably not, but you must agree - these are gorgeous looking apps! Most freeware apps don't look that good..
@Anon, @Leon Liber That raises a good follow up question then. What are some freeware apps that do look that good. I could prime the question by throwing out there: VLC Handbrake Quicksilver Pixen
I would also add: Miro (Very pretty) AppCleaner Camino Smultron SimpleTask Scribblet
Forgot to mention one of my absolute favorite looking mac freeware apps: Transmission (web interface is pretty too)
awesome app love........

These are some really nice apps and ScreenFlow is really the best of it's kind! I can also add this Free Application: iCompta -> http://bit.ly/4yV2ql A great personal finance app. It does also have an iPhone version.
I m liking your posts a lot . Keep Going !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, not sure if this is the right place to post this but tobad :P I really like this site, I have a few custome mac sites and what they ALL need is more things about customizing them with weird features, like the glow in expose was PERFECT! more things like that, like how to change your color in stacks or anything in that category as weird! applications are great but you guys are just re-saying applications that every other site has said. google "top mac applications" everything you named is in the top page along with every other app you guys listed somewhere, try to look for UNONE applications that are either 1: brand new 2: not heard of yet and post those. I love your work, but your only giving me and 85% when I want the full 100%, definitely keep trying! you guys are doing amazing; also.. maybe a few more interesting tips? don't give us easy ones like "cleaning up desktop" give us something no one else has!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
