2009-04-30T10:47:32Z 56634 0 I really like this mail client that comes with OS X. Until I recently switched to using Google mail and MailPlane, this was my client of choice. My only complaint is that it can be pretty slow to sync with imap servers. I still use it for my non-google mail accounts. Clean, lean and pretty. 561363917 2007-05-10T12:32:43Z 10976 2012-10-26T02:39:30Z Mail 9563 2009-11-28T18:11:38Z 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. Originally developed by NeXT as NeXTMail, a part of their Nextstep operating system, it was adapted, following Apple's acquisition of NeXT, to become OS X's Mail application. Mail uses the SMTP, POP3, and IMAP protocols, and supports MobileMe and Exchange via IMAP. Both the iPhone and the iPod touch feature a mobile version of Apple Mail. 2009-04-30T10:45:13Z 56633 0 I use more and more web applications every month to run my business. However, I find the browser is not always the best place to use them. Fluid lets you create a standalone app for a web site. It's a wrapper around Safari webkit. The nice thing is that you get a separate icon for the app in the dock so you don't have to go hunting through browser tabs to find the one you want. 69296999 2007-12-12T17:40:08Z 84304 2009-11-30T23:08:54Z Fluid 1605 2009-11-27T05:53:32Z http://fluidapp.com http://wakoopa.com/software/fluid http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/129/183/normal.png?1249386611 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/129/183/thumb.png?1249386611 17109 Todd Ditchendorf http://wakoopa.com/developers/todd-ditchendorf Check what's happening on the web 1 Browsers http://wakoopa.com/categories/internet/browsers mac Using Fluid, you can create Site Specific Browsers (SSBs) to run each of your favorite webapps as a separate desktop application. Fluid gives any webapp a home on your Mac OS X desktop complete with Dock icon, standard menu bar, and logical separation from your other web browsing activity. 2009-04-30T10:43:12Z 56632 0 Google mail is great. MailPlane makes it fantastic. It's essentially a GUI wrapper on the firefox (I think) browser engine. The main benefit for me is the ability to handle multiple gmail accounts, but the other user-interface bits make gmail even better to use. 33783310 2007-05-10T19:07:33Z 11449 2009-11-30T22:56:29Z Mailplane 671 2009-11-15T22:41:48Z http://mailplaneapp.com/ http://wakoopa.com/software/mailplane http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/696/normal.png?1238521750 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/004/696/thumb.png?1238521750 18952 Uncomplex http://wakoopa.com/developers/uncomplex 20 Email http://wakoopa.com/categories/internet/email mac A Mac OS X email client for Google Mail (Gmail).

I know it's not very extensible but I've never been a big user of plugins and the few I do have for Safari suit my needs. It's fast, simple and very standards-compliant. 2147483647 2007-05-10T12:32:41Z 10971 2016-08-25T06:27:32Z Safari 19775 2009-11-30T12:17:26Z http://www.apple.com/safari http://wakoopa.com/software/safari http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/129/179/normal.png?1249386099 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/129/179/thumb.png?1249386099 14397 Apple Inc. http://wakoopa.com/developers/apple-inc Check what's happening on the web 1 Browsers http://wakoopa.com/categories/internet/browsers mac win It’s a browser.

The key things for me are the ability to sync between machines (always an important consideration as I use at least four different macs regularly) and being able to manage a large number of feeds and articles. 117124522 2007-05-10T13:31:24Z 11030 2010-04-17T06:15:03Z NetNewsWire 1905 2009-11-27T10:21:58Z http://www.newsgator.com/Individuals/NetNewsWire http://wakoopa.com/software/netnewswire http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/129/993/normal.png?1249652411 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/129/993/thumb.png?1249652411 18949 Brent Simmons http://wakoopa.com/developers/brent-simmons 22 RSS Readers http://wakoopa.com/categories/internet/rss-readers mac NetNewsWire is an easy-to-use RSS and Atom newsreader for Mac OS X which syncs with Google Reader.

Eclipse is like the Emacs of the 21st century, hugely extendable and flexible, with plugins for lots of different technologies. My main criteria for adopting a new programming language or technology is whether there is an Eclipse plugin for it. 291284454 2007-05-02T19:43:34Z 1804 2012-02-10T09:46:32Z Eclipse 4999 2009-11-29T19:09:14Z http://www.eclipse.org http://wakoopa.com/software/eclipse http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/002/729/normal.png?1238516270 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/002/729/thumb.png?1238516270 2939 Eclipse Foundation http://wakoopa.com/developers/eclipse-foundation 51 Text Editors & IDEs http://wakoopa.com/categories/development/text-editors-ides mac win linux Eclipse is an open-source, platform-independent software framework, written primarily in Java, for delivering what the project calls "rich-client applications," as opposed to "thin client" browser-based applications. So far this framework has typically been used to develop Integrated Development Environments (IDEs), such as the Java IDE called Java Development Toolkit (JDT) and compiler (ECJ) that comes as part of Eclipse (and which are also used to develop Eclipse itself). However, it can be used for other types of client application as well. 2009-04-29T09:02:09Z 56364 0 Even though I use the subversion support built into development tools such as Eclipse a lot, Versions has proved a very very useful addition to my development tool suite. The interface is clean and simple, providing access to all the major features of subversion. It is also very good at handling checkins of very large file sets (in the thousands) which cause Eclipse to choke. 2997549 2008-06-04T17:14:29Z 120012 2009-11-30T17:41:03Z Versions 600 2009-11-11T06:28:26Z http://versionsapp.com http://wakoopa.com/software/versions http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/010/852/normal.png?1238589031 http://mallow.wakoopa.com/avatars/000/010/852/thumb.png?1238589031 28725 Pico and Sofa http://wakoopa.com/developers/pico-and-sofa 52 Management http://wakoopa.com/categories/development/management mac Versions provides a pleasant way to work with Subversion on your Mac.
