After switching to a Mac a while back ago I’ve spent a lot of time searching for new apps to use to see what’s so special about a Mac. I’ve found a lot of really cool apps in the past and some that I just didn’t care for. Here’s a short list of my recent favorites.

Adium — A multi-protocol chat client. I use it to chat on AIM, MSN, and even Facebook. Supports all type of different

TweetDeck — This app isn’t Mac specific but I still added it to the list. It’s just a simple Twitter client that uses columns to seperate tweets. You can even set up custom coloumns that search for specific things.

iStat Menus — Display different information on your menu bar. You can display network traffic, temperature, hard drive activity and all sorts of other info.

MultiClutch — Adds extra features for those who have glass trackpads on their MacBook. I used it to set a three finger swipe to the left as going backwards in Firefox.

Growl — Shows notifications in a neat and clean manner.

Fruux — Sync Safari bookmarks and contacts across Macs.

QuickSilver — Task launcher.

CoconutBattery – Check the status of your battery. You can see your battery health, how many cycles you’ve used and current battery charge with the maximum battery charge.

BBedit — Single window, multiple file, code editor.

BowTie — Displays album art work, song title, rating, and other information about the current song playing in iTunes neatly on your desktop. You can create your own themes using simple HTML and CSS.

Fetch — Just simple , straight out, FTP.

Silk — Change system fonts.

Connect360 — Connect your Mac to your 360 so you can watch videos, view pictures and listen to your music.

Theres are some of my favorite Mac apps. Whats yours?

I haven’t been posting much because mostly I can’t think of what to write about. Hpefully soon I’ll have something good for you. But for now enjoy this screen cap of an ogre in guild chat. By the way, anybody know how to do this?

I'm an Ooooogggrrreeee!

So it’s no surprise that I casually enjoy playing the extremely popular MMORPG – World Of Warcraft. I hardly ever post about it here on the blog but I thought I should start. I mean why not? I play it a lot so I figured I might as well.

To start off I created a new page titled “My World Of Warcraft”. You can find it here or you can find it in the menu up top. It’s still a work in progress but so far I have my Death Knight listed on there. The page will show the character and all of it’s WoWArmory information including a few of my recent achievements. Enjoy. More to come later.

So, I’ve changed my domain to SelfMadeCelo.com. MarshinStudios.com was pretty random, with no central topic. I’ve decided to use this domain because, well for one it’s my online identity (sort of) and number two I can write more about my hobbies and life and feel like the site has a real topic. Anyways, sit back and enjoy the posts from here on out. Comment every once in a while and make me feel loved =) Add this to your feed reader over there on the right or just click here. See ya!
