Interesting Applications for OS X

I found a few nice applications recently, either heard about through RSS feeds or Podcasts I listen to.

Joost, currently in beta, is great for gathering together lots of media channels on the web and allowing you to browse by category or search for content.  Definitely worth a look at.

Radioshift from Rogue Amoeba is also good if you like to listen to web radio and want to record programs and drop the recorded programs into iTunes.  Good search capability too.

For those of you who get PDF documents and want some way to read them and comment on them in the “margin” then Skim is for you.  There is also integration with other document types - see the web page and online documentation for more information.

If, like me, you regularly take your Mac Laptop between different networks each with their own settings needed, then you meed to handle that in a smart way.  MarcPolo is an application that allows you to switch locations by setting rules based on a number of different criteria.  I’ve been using this for some time and find it works great for me.

More application information soon . . .
