Some productive awesomeness from others
Let me start with my favorite one first. Minime is an app that can minimize any application or folder you have running. YAWN. Stop yawming right now! It also allows you to create minimized bundles. Instead of having an icon for each minimized app and folder, you can have just one or two which contain groups. This is excellent for creating minimized versions of your work and your play apps for example. Great find Martin from gHacks!
Monitor your folders and auto-delete files within with a nifty application called Auto Delete. This is great for some of the archiving folders I use, I can set to delete files older than 1 month, or 1 year, very handy to keep your hard drive from overflowing with cra… clutter.
A new browser, or rather new browsers, has come out called Lunascape. The interesting thing is that it has the Gecko, Webkit and Tirdent engines inside it meaning it can be made to run like IE, Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and all their derivatives. This is a paradise for programmers, great find!
If you believe in power napping or are a follower you’ll love Napsounds, a service that, get ready for the shock, generates sounds for your nap. Who’s have guessed? You can get 20 minute tracks, and one of the great things is you can download it, listen online, grab it as a podcast using iTunes.
I just found a service through Make Use Of called Kaltura, which is a great app for video management on your site. It allows the management of videos, best of all in Wordpress with a little addon. You will have much more power over your included videos, which has always been a sort of gray area until now.
Springpad is an app I’ve wanted to show you before, and I’ll be doing an in-depth view later on, but until now take a look at the great introductory post by Varun on Make Use Of. It’s basically a note based organizer for your life, so if you’re into Remember The Milk, personal wikis, Google Notebook or anything like that, Springpad is for you.
