I love Dateline. Oh, and here comes Chris Hansen.

While it’s easy to keep clean and minimalist at start-up, my mid-workday desktop is generally a massive dogpile of apps and windows. I try to hide or quit apps I’m not using at the moment, but often forget. Enter SpiritedAway. SpiritedAway checks each running application’s activity, and if an application isn’t active for a certain fixed time (set by you), Spirited Away hides the application automatically.

And here’s a vital tip: the official sites are all distributing v0.7, but you need v0.6 for it to run reliably on Leopard, so until v0.8 comes out with a fix, here’s a direct link to it: SpiritedAway v0.6 .zip (any earlier versions aren’t universal binary.)

Just trying out Screenr.com, pretty awesome webapp.

I’m looking for a mac application I once stumbled upon. Essentially it’s a little palette where all your menu bar apps live. So say you can never access all your menu bar apps because the menu of the application you’re using covers most of the menu bar apps - you can use this alternative menu bar palette thing to access the menu bar app.

Anyone know what this is called (kinda ambiguous, heh)?

I’ve tried a lot of AppZapper-esq applications. But none are quite as good as AppZapper. Until now! I found this little gem AppCleaner which is free, and works quite well.

Get notified when certain items are added to your local craigslist. Pretty niffty.

Slammer, a Mac app for your column based designs.

Flip Clock Screensaver. Old school and cool. It’s called Fliqlo.

I have the Flip Clock app on my iPod Touch. It only cost a dollar and I use it every day to keep better track of time. Don’t underestimage large digital clocks as opposed to your computer’s little system clock.
