I thought i’d outline the apps that I run on my mac, since im in the middle of formatting my hard drive because Adobe doesn’t run on case-sensitive drives (who knew!). Anyway here they are in no specific order:
- Office 2008 – for my standard editing, spreadsheets, work email (entourage)
- iLife – primarily for iphoto – i tried picasa and hated it. i tried aperature, loved it until i found out the full cost
- Adobe CS3 – primarily for photoshop and flash
- textmate – for my quick editing of files – word is just too clunky for this
- eclipse – for my java/php/js/html/css editing
- adium – for my chatting – (gmail, yahoo, msn, aol)
- tweetdeck – for twitter + facebook (hey add 4sq!)
- omnigraffle – for my IA work that i need to do
- quickbooks – for my accounting
- quicksilver – this is probably increases my efficiency on a mac by 10%. if you don’t use it, you should look into it.
- transmit – my ftp program
What apps do you use? I’d like to hear!
edit : ooops forgot about couple of thinigs: Firefox (with web developer and firebug plugins) and Charles my proxy to help debug transmissions between applications
