2009-01-13T16:09:19Z 35687 0 If you give presentations even on an irregular basis, Keynote alone is reason enough to get a Mac. There's a chasm of quality and esthetics with all other presentation packages. Software is no substitute for thinking through your presentation, but once you get to writing it out, it is essential. 52446691 2007-05-10T19:05:23Z 11334 2009-11-28T12:16:54Z Keynote 3579 2009-11-25T08:13:50Z http://www.apple.com/iwork/keynote/ http://wakoopa.com/software/keynote http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/662/normal.png?1238521666 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/662/thumb.png?1238521666 14397 Apple Inc. http://wakoopa.com/developers/apple-inc 40 Presentation http://wakoopa.com/categories/office/presentation mac Keynote is a presentation software application developed by Apple Inc. and a part of the iWork productivity suite which also includes Pages and Numbers. 2008-06-20T22:13:12Z 10695 2 It's a bit of a shame that twhirl is the best Twitter client out there. It's a testament to the sorry state of the field. The fact that it's written in the crippled AIR platform makes for a slew of bugs and platform inconsistencies in blocking IO, stupid text selection quirks (like we're used to from Flash) and lots of other bugs. So I'm an avid but involuntary user. 115164119 2007-11-21T19:22:47Z 78672 2017-06-26T03:48:13Z twhirl 4452 2009-11-15T10:33:05Z http://twhirl.org http://wakoopa.com/software/twhirl http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/150/969/normal.png?1254342746 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/150/969/thumb.png?1254342746 22276 Marco Kaiser http://wakoopa.com/developers/marco-kaiser Applications that let you interact with your content on websites 11 Desktop clients http://wakoopa.com/categories/internet/desktop-clients mac win linux Microblogging desktop client built on the Adobe AIR platform.

It keeps popping up the window, and there are new tweets but it is not showing them.

Things helps me quickly get all the stuff out of my brain and filed in the right context and at the correct GTD level. They are still planning loads of cool functionality like iCal integration. If they also implement a lightweight web interface to your lists and/or an iPhone app, it will be complete. 11902997 2007-11-03T02:01:16Z 75949 2009-11-28T16:20:35Z Things 1561 2009-11-26T23:16:00Z http://culturedcode.com/things http://wakoopa.com/software/things http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/009/187/normal.png?1238583990 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/009/187/thumb.png?1238583990 6139 Culturedcode http://wakoopa.com/developers/culturedcode 59 Productivity http://wakoopa.com/categories/office/productivity mac Organize your tasks in an elegant and intuitive way.

I only use it when I need to test a website in a cookieless browser. 151868949 2007-05-10T18:59:09Z 11234 2009-11-28T17:39:33Z Camino 1746 2009-11-12T21:26:44Z http://www.caminobrowser.org/ http://wakoopa.com/software/camino http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/624/normal.png?1238521563 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/624/thumb.png?1238521563 32690 The Camino Project http://wakoopa.com/developers/the-camino-project Check what's happening on the web 1 Browsers http://wakoopa.com/categories/internet/browsers mac Camino combines the awesome visual and behavioral experience that has been central to the Macintosh philosophy with the powerful web-browsing capabilities of the Gecko rendering engine.

It's pretty much finished as vanilla as it is, though I think there's plenty of room for improvement. Anyway teamed with GMail, it is a great solution for your e-mail. 559384688 2007-05-10T12:32:43Z 10976 2012-10-26T02:39:30Z Mail 9538 2009-11-25T16:09:43Z http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/mail.html http://wakoopa.com/software/mail http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/094/998/normal.png?1246589070 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/094/998/thumb.png?1246589070 14397 Apple Inc. http://wakoopa.com/developers/apple-inc 20 Email http://wakoopa.com/categories/internet/email mac Mail (aka Mail.app or Apple Mail) is an e-mail program included with Apple Inc.'s Mac OS X operating system.

Both the iPhone and the iPod touch feature a mobile version of Apple Mail. 2008-03-08T23:11:23Z 7583 4 I keep elaborate calendars for most aspects of my life and iCal is a great tool to do just that. The Leopard release has really boosted the usability as well with UI improvements and it pretty much seamlessly handles all the crap my coworkers using Outlook throw at me. Stay away from the todos feature, though. There are better things out there for that. It would be nice if calendar sharing was as easy as it is with GCalendar. 828276 2007-05-10T12:32:41Z 10970 2009-10-08T20:32:26Z iCal 1057 2009-11-09T01:26:05Z http://www.apple.com/ical http://wakoopa.com/software/ical-alarmscheduler http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/551/normal.png?1238521381 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/551/thumb.png?1238521381 14397 Apple Inc. http://wakoopa.com/developers/apple-inc 63 Personal Information Manager http://wakoopa.com/categories/office/personal-information-manager mac iCal is a personal calendar application made by Apple Inc. that runs on the Mac OS X operating system. iCal was the first calendar application to offer support for multiple calendars and the ability to publish/subscribe calendars to WebDAV server. 2008-03-08T23:08:51Z 7582 4 Plays pretty much everything you throw at it, including difficult webradio streams. Audio boosting is nice to have for certain types of content and the latest release with Apple Remote support has really won me over. 890156285 2009-02-09T11:48:55Z 198793 2019-09-18T08:58:15Z VLC Media Player 20991 2009-11-28T06:20:16Z http://www.videolan.org/vlc http://wakoopa.com/software/vlc-media-player http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/151/799/normal.png?1254577380 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/151/799/thumb.png?1254577380 1883 VideoLAN team http://wakoopa.com/developers/videolan-team Audio & Video players 25 Players http://wakoopa.com/categories/audio-video/players mac win linux VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player and multimedia framework capable of reading most audio and video formats (MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264, DivX, MPEG-1, mp3, ogg, aac ...) as well as DVDs, Audio CDs VCDs, and various streaming protocols.

I read several hundred feeds and it can block sometimes, I'm guessing waiting for disk/IO. For the rest this is one of the best, featured, usable and stable RSS readers I have used (and I have used a couple). 18108586 2007-05-10T19:06:22Z 11382 2009-11-28T13:44:03Z Vienna 535 2009-07-13T09:33:18Z http://www.opencommunity.co.uk/vienna2.php http://wakoopa.com/software/vienna http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/675/normal.jpg?1238521699 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/675/thumb.jpg?1238521699 19014 Open Community http://wakoopa.com/developers/open-community 22 RSS Readers http://wakoopa.com/categories/internet/rss-readers mac Vienna is a freeware, open source RSS/Atom newsreader for the Mac OS X operating system.
