Docked

Sandvox

This is a new application taht allows users to create fairly complicated websites. I participated in the beta period and was able to recreate one of my websites. In fact I was very happy. There were some bugs present, but they were pretty quickly resolved. So now that I redesigned this website, I will continue to use it. I might even start playing with designs and other website. And I would like to see a way to integrate it with Expression Engine in some way.

Nanosaur

This application came with MaxOSX.4. I hardly play it, but my son likes it. So it is still in my dock.

Grab

A very simple application that I use for making screen shots.

OmniOutliner

This outliner application is used more often by. It is pretty good for creating simple outlines.

MarsEdit

I had a look at the MarsEdit application to see whether it would cooperate with my weblog-software (pMachine). It does not seem to be useful. I can not post (does not recognize my weblog). Can not use categories. Does not use titles. Can only use a single weblog. And I can not multiple weblogs. So this is not useful.

And I think the implementation of the pMachine Blogger API is to blaim here. So we have to wait until a better implementation comes out.

Site Studio

With this application it is possible to create a simple website. First the user selects an overall style for the site. This can be changed later. Then the user can create pages by selecting a page layout. The user can then fill in the blank spaces of the layout.

I liked the application and decided to buy it in order to create one of my websites.

SubEthaEdit

From time to time I need an editor to edit some HTML-files. I used Dreamweaver a lot, but my current version is very old, so I needed another solution. As I do not use it very often, I have not bought the application.

Ejector

An extremely small application. It adds a menu-item, which allows me to ejects mounted disks. Very useful to eject my camera or iPod. And I do not have to open a Finder-window. It is just convenient. I’ll see how often I use it. It still uses space in my menu-bar.

MacGourmet

Recently I found this application. It is one of the better recipe applications that I used. It seems very flexible in setting up lists. And what I like very much is that a picture appears on the recipe page. A picture is a big reason that I chose a recipe. The application has im- and exporting possibilities. I like the drag&drop mode from the web into the app. I like the web publication possibility as well.

I bought the application. Now I must enter recipes. I have the idea to enter all things that we eat daily. I can then add comments and an appreciation as well.

Skype

At last Skype for MacOS-X is available. And now I got my ADSL-connection. So I am now online and can be reached by anybody.

Security Update

I regularly install the security updates released by Apple. Usually I wait some days before I commit myself. Just to make sure Apple did not release any errors. 

iPhoto

I use this application to manage my digital photo library.

Apple posted this update which has a few small improvements. Does not seem to be very useful, but I downloaded this version anyway.

Safari

This used to be my favorite web-browser. I changed however to Omniweb. If viewing fails under Omniweb I might use this app. I still use it as my standard browser on my classic orange iBook.

iTunes

I use this application everyday when I am listening to the music on my iPod. I think it is great.

Nice to see that this version has a party shuffle, which allows you to mix all songs.
