Here's an unfinished track that I created a while ago, basically chopping and changing bits of 'Mr Brightside' by The Killers.
Here's a breakdown of the apps that I use on a daily basis that are 'must-have' for me:
- Firefox - the hugely popular multi-platform web browser. Not as fast as Safari, but plugins galore and compatibility.
- Mail, iCal, iSync and Address Book - the essentials for day-to-day stuff and syncing to my N95.
- iTunes - love it or hate it, I happen to love it. And I need it for my iPods, obviously.
- iPhoto `08 - neat photo management, although I'm not sure if I like it as much as the previous version.
- VisualHub - converts any video format into another. Useful for streaming vids and DVDs.
- Adium - instant message app that supports every major protocol.
- VMWare Fusion - virtualisation at its very best. Recently moved from Parallels.
- Connect360 & MediaLink - streaming my music, videos and photos to the 360 and PS3. Very neat.
- Spaces & Exposé - not applications as such, but I've grown so used to using them I couldn't live without them.
- Soundtrack Pro - for music production / tinkering with audio.
- Max - for audio file conversion.
- Cyberduck - FTP uploading.
- Time Machine - backup for the bone-idle.
That's the basic list. There are likely many more applications I have come to rely on but have failed to mention here.
Here's my current Mac desktop for January
Well it would seem that I'm completely out of luck, and we're not even half way through the first month of the new year! I've somehow managed to fracture my shoulder in two places while playing a tennis competition!! Well, the doctors think I probably injured it before and the tennis pushed it over the edge. This means I'm now going to be out of tennis and climbing for 6-8 weeks while it fully heals. I've got an appointment to see a specialist on Tuesday so we'll see what he has to say about it. What annoys me is that having only just got over my nose operation this comes along. Since i've hit 24 it seems my body wants to fall apart! One is not impressed!
