Yea, I like DragThing too... but it's already listed in Macworld. I think they're trying to come up with a new list.
Share your picks!

I really like and find useful enough to have paid for them:
- WeatherPop
- Entourage Import/Export
- NetNewsWire Lite
- Carbon Copy Cloner
- Tinkertool
I'm certain there's more but these are what come to mind immediately. OS X has been a boon to open source and shareware/freeware development. I recently discovered Webmin, a stunningly easy and efficient web-based GUI for administering many of the functions built into Mac OS X and Mac OS X Server. Webmin is amazing!

Great thread!
Addressix....I use this so much to print envelopes even tho I have Office X.
MacJanitor
isaBook...a little address book easily accessed
DropDrawers......I like this one much more than DragThing. Drawers fit into the sides of your desktop & slide out as needed.

Using CharlesVan's tip, I just downloaded iPhoto Diet & am going to love it! Thanks.
So many good sharewares & freewares coming out...these threads are very useful as sometimes I miss seeing a new one when it appears.

I used (and paid for images/icons/smile.gif ) ChronoSync from Econ technologies and was pretty impressed.
It flawlessly synchronized files between my iBook and G4, regardless of which machine had a newer version. It previews the transfer before it happens so you can exclude/include files, and keeps verbose logging (should you need it).
Great interface, very OS X-like and well worth the $20.

Hmmm . . . some small stuff I use often:
blank>Meteorologist - weather info in the menu bar
blank>TuneCam-O-Mat - uploads the song I'm listening to on iTunes to my website
blank>iPhoto Librarian - Wonderful little applescript to change iPhoto Libraries
blank>Mac Tablet - The best replacement for OS 9's Notepad that's out there
blank>Cycles - Isn't it nice to see how stressed your computer is?
Oh, and How could I forget blank>Adium? The best AIM messenger with tabs and all (and no ads)
Chock up another vote for blank>Chimera
blank>Blobber is nice to get rid of the spinning pinwheel in 10.2, but I would much rather get rid of the stupid mouse shadow. Does anyone know how to do that?
That's all I can think of for now

CharlesVan.... ok

...a good collection of applescripts. I especially like Trash It! for those times you can't seem to delete something.
