- Thunderbird and Firefox with the del.icio.us plugin. I've also been using TwitterFox but DH has not been converted to Twitter just yet. Greasemonkey plugins are good too.
- BusySync which I am now using to synchronize iCal with Google Calendar.
- Flip4Mac which allows Windows Media files to play on your Mac via QuickTime
- Lingon, basically a cron job scheduler. A GUI to launchd to be a bit more technical.
- AdiumX, an instant messaging client that integrates most IM protocols (yes, even Lotus Sametime).
- Parallels or VMWare Fusion, both allow you to run Windows on your Mac if you need to.
- MissingSync if you still love your Palm
What Macintosh programs do you use?
Doug is enamored with Garage Band. I love Safari, actually and IPhoto!
ReplyDeleteOf course! iPhoto, iTunes, etc. are a given! :-)
ReplyDeleteDH had some questions about iPhoto
ReplyDelete- how do you share across the home network?
- how do you backup to DVD?
- how do you upload to Snapfish
Sharing
In iPhoto -> Preferences -> Sharing, check "Share my photos" and add a password if you wish. This will share your iPhoto Library with up to five other computers on your subnet.
On the other machine, in iPhoto -> Preferences -> Sharing make sure that "Look for Shared Photos" is checked.
Burning
Open iPhoto and select your Library, roll, album, or individual photos you want to burn to a disc. Then go to the Share menu, and choose Burn. Follow the prompts to complete the process
Snapfish
There is no plugin. ARG!
I guess you could build your own in Cocoa
