Intro
ET OSX is a list of useful tools for the MacOS X, most of which live in the Applications folder on my startup drive. It started as a 'what's on my Mac' page on my personal site but quickly evolved into a blog of its own. I'm trying to focus most on of the tiny but useful utilities that sometimes save you lots of trouble and effort, and to omit for the most part the list of big guns, that one normally uses on a daily basis. The list serves two purposes, lets me easily answer 'how do I do this on the Mac' questions asked by other users, and helps me remember answers to the same questions myself.
Adium(www.adiumx.com) - My current instant messenger of choice. Supports several IM services - yahoo, jabber, aim, icq, msn, googleTalk, many, many more. Clean, customisable interface, quite robust, supports all the latest Tiger-related goodies - Spotlight, Growl, etc. I've always been on the quest to keep only one IM application running at a time. Adium brings me very close to achieving that goal, I only have to run Skype on the side. Licensed under the GNU GPL.
