I seem to have fallen behind
on my weekly picks, Christmas, $work and life in
general have kept me very busy lately, but I'll try to get back to my
weekly1 schedule again.
This weeks pick is DocScanner, an iPhone app that allows you to have a flatbed scanner …

I have blogged about this weeks
pick before but I never made it a pick of the week before. The recent update
to Tweetie rocks, so if you are into Twitter1 I suggest you head over to
the App Store and pick up a
copy.
The first version of …

This weeks pick is a mac app called Pixelmator.
Pixelmator is a lightning fast image
editor for the mac - kinda like a
Photoshop
lite but unlike
Photoshop
((With each new version of
Photoshop it
seems to move further away from being a true mac app.)),
Pixelmator really feels like it …

A
recent tweet by
@drwave from Pixar prompted me to
check out
SketchBook Mobile
from Autodesk, and boy am I glad I did! I
have always wanted to get better at drawing, but I have never set
aside the time it takes to master this creative skill. As with all …

This weeks pick is another
iPhone app by the name of Prowl.
Prowl promises to bring Growl from your
desktop to your iPhone. When I first heard about
Prowl I thought that this was surely the
stupidest app ever! - Why on earth would you want your Growl
notifications on your …

I use
Spaces a lot
and today it just got a whole lot better! Back in the olden days I
used VirtueDesktops which in my
opinion was way better than
Spaces, but the
project
died
and we were left with
Spaces. In the
beginning

This
weeks pick is an oldie,
but a goodie. It is a Mac app that I can't live without. I work
with computers all day long developing software for various
$clients. When developing software I spend a great deal of time in
a text editor ((Preferably
Emacs,
TextMate or
Xcode …
Posted on Sat, 13 Jun 2009 in Pick of the week • Tagged with 1Password, Apps, iPhone, MacOSX
This weeks pick is an
tool that is usualy the first thing I install on a new computer
((And by computer I mean Mac)). It's an app that keeps my personal
information safe. It's an app called 1Password that totally
replaces MacOSX' build in Keychain. So why would I want …

Inspired
by Leo and his
gang on
TWiT, I am starting a weekly post series about
apps and technology I find particular cool. This weeks pick is a
small game called
Flight Control from
Firemint.
Flight Control is a very
simple game with exceptionally beautiful graphics and it's very
addicting …
