> Brightness Slider for reducing screen brightness.<p>I was going to write a little rant about how this should be possible without 3rd party software. Researching a bit, I found that Apple has restored the ⌥+⇧ modifier for volume as well as for brightness (if that was even there before).<p>So no need to install this; adjust brightness with ⌥+⇧+☼ instead!<p><a href="http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/19146/is-fine-volume-adjustment-possible-in-os-x-lion" rel="nofollow">http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/19146/is-fine-volum...</a><p>Edit: Trying it out, it seems the actual brightness level has the same minimum as before, even when the setting is at 1/4 of a square. It only works for values higher than one square. :(
You're missing Alfred, an awesome application launcher that works on top of Spotlight: <a href="http://www.alfredapp.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.alfredapp.com/</a>
Definitely worth giving it a chance.

You do not let me zoom your page on my iPad and you limit the font-size to really small. You limit page width to the same tight column when I change to landscape.<p>Why anger your readership?<p>I will not read your stinking blog.
xScope (<a href="http://iconfactory.com/software/xscope" rel="nofollow">http://iconfactory.com/software/xscope</a>) is a very useful tool for designing layouts.
I wrote a similar post a while ago, recommended for developers: <a href="http://damir.me/posts/essential-tools-and-apps-for-mac" rel="nofollow">http://damir.me/posts/essential-tools-and-apps-for-mac</a>
I'm not familiar with AppTrap, but I use Hazel for that and a lot more. In addition to moving associated files to the trash when you move an app to the trash, it also lets you create your own rules for things like sorting & color coding downloads, removing backups older than a particular age, and automatically deleting trashed files over a certain size or that were sitting in the trash for a certain time.
I know it's a list of desktop apps, but I just recently launched a quick reference (iPhone) app for iOS devs: <a href="http://www.idev101.com/app/" rel="nofollow">http://www.idev101.com/app/</a><p>The color picker is my personal favorite. It'll convert between hex colors, RGB and HSB. Plus it shows the UIColor code for whatever color you're previewing.
Another really useful app is Spectacle, for keyboard shortcuts to dock an application the left or right half of the screen (like winkey+left and winkey+right on windows 7/8).<p><a href="http://spectacleapp.com/" rel="nofollow">http://spectacleapp.com/</a>
My vote goes to Soulver (<a href="http://www.acqualia.com/soulver/" rel="nofollow">http://www.acqualia.com/soulver/</a>), which is basically the best calculator app ever. Useful for so many things, from figuring out algorithms to doing taxes.
