iFreete
iFreete is an application that allows the user to see the freeware applications available for MacOSX. iFreete also checks the free applications that the user has installed and shows which ones need to be updated. I think this is quite cute and could have potential, once it is expanded to include any application.
- Skins - the application supports Skins for the toolbar. I assume that these are just a set of other icons;
