Do you love your Mac? I've got it easy. I'm an IT guy at quite a large company. That means, that when my Macbook gets stolen, I'll get a new one. Agreed, no one will be quite happy when that happens, but I'll be OK. But think about it. What if I personally saved up for that Macbook. What if it was my own and someone ran away with it? Oh my!

Customization is fun! I'm such a customization freak. There's nothing in the world I like more than tweaking my background picture, or messing around with icons in my dock. OK, not true. I like plenty of other things more that tweaking, and I use Overflow, so no icons in the Dock anymore. But still, this app is a fun little freeware thingy. Go get it! App name: Desktopia Developer: Pierre Chatel Promotion in podcast: no (freeware)

Spotlight but better! Spotlight discussions often take place between two groups... Those who just don't use it, and those who can't live without it. Perhaps HoudahSpot will get some of that first group to change their mind? App name: HoudahSpot Developer: Houdah Software Promotion in podcast: yes (promocode)

Explore music! I know there are quite a lot of services that allow you to upload data on the music you're playing. Often you can then go and look at wht other people are listening to.

When itunes just doesn't cut it... I'm a sucker when it comes to mellow music (can I say this 'sucker' or is this considered as explicit?). I really am. You just go and try getting a smart playlist that gets all the soft, slow music together. It doesn't work. Ditto when it comes to the opposite. Any 'mood' related playlist really. But Tangerine! succeeds in a very original manner. App name: Tangerine! Developer: Potion Factory Promotion in podcast: yes (go check out the episode... you don't want to miss this)

I tried to make this. On The Job is the ultimate Time tracking tool from the same developer that created Overflow. It's 'the ultimate' because it just bout nails it when it comes to all the functionality that I would expect from an app like this. And it remains being slick, basic and simple. I once tried to make something like this myself... Don't know why I even bothered with this around.
