Quicksilver

copiloto commented on 14 Dec 2007

I don't know why this is, but my copy of Quicksilver, downloaded from the Blacktree website says it is version 54. Is this a recent upgrade?

[Version 1.0b53]

KeePassX

copiloto reviewed on 08 Aug 2007

An awesome program. I use it for storing and creating passwords and it works like a charm. For a password program to work, several things have to be there: (1) it must be cross-platform (since you have to carry your passwords with you); (2) it cannot prevent you from exporting your data; (3) it has to be open-source, so the crypto can be analyzed, and finally (IMHO) (4) it needs to have a easy to use interface. KeePassX does it all.

[Version 0.2.2]

Demeter

Wow -- this browser is fast! Keep up the good work, it shows incredible promise. Although I like Shiira very much, it still suffers from some issues that truly annoy me. I will be using Demeter from now on.

[Version 1.2.2]

Adobe Flash Player

copiloto commented on 11 Jul 2007

It is just unbelievable that with each release, Adobe is unable to improve on Flash. Yes, it is still that slow and weird plug-in. Maybe I'm too naïve to expect actual performance improvements with new versions...

[Version 9.0.47]

Wow! Thanks for the tip. This beta version is really awesome, no comparison. I take back my words, Adobe...

Alarm Clock

copiloto reviewed on 10 Jul 2007

I will join the group of very satisfied users of this app and throw in my 2 cents. This is an awesome app: it is simple, reliable, and unobtrusive. I use it all the time, not only the alarm, but the timer. Previous to that, I was using Minuteur as a timer, but Minuteur is a whopping 24MG program for such a simple function. Thank you for the app and for the time you dedicate to it.

[Version 2.4.5]

Punakea

copiloto commented on 04 Jun 2007

This is a wonderful program. It gets a simple idea right and there is nothing better than tagging your files. This last version is crashing sometimes when I try to tag many files at once, but nothing major. Highly recommended.

[Version 0.3]

Nocturne

copiloto commented on 13 May 2007

Does anybody know if running this app for long periods of time wastes less energy?

[Version 1.0.2]

Monocle

copiloto reviewed on 27 Apr 2007

This is an incredible piece of software -- it is extremely useful! It doesn't get in the way and you can add all the search engines you want. The killer feature for me is the ability to use it completely from the keyboard, including changing search engines. Gets a solid A+.

[Version 1.1b1]

Google Desktop

copiloto reviewed on 25 Apr 2007

It seems people get upset because their computers get sluggish while GDesktop indexes their files for some time; they have no patience and then trash it. Some people are bashing GDesktop without even trying it! I don't understand why having the option of using GDesktop is bad -- these apps are tools for the job: if they work for you, great. If they don't, uninstall them and move on.

I've been using GDesktop since it was released and I find it a joy -- in fact, it became indispensable. It is NOT a replacement to Quicksilver (I still use it and love it), but it is much better and faster than Spotlight. The snippets help a lot when searching for files, as well as being able to search my web history and gmail. It is unobtrusive and the shortcut works perfectly.

I hope that in future versions, Google integrates GDesktop with its other apps such as Docs, GCalendar, and maybe Reader. Thank you for the app!

[Version 1.0.0.155]

VoodooPad Lite

copiloto commented on 16 Mar 2007

VoodooPad is just incredible! I've been using this Lite Version for a while and I wish I could buy the full version -- I'm a poor grad student, so... =(

I use it mainly as a journal for personal notes and random thoughts. I love the free form that VP allows, never trying to impose a certain way to its user. It is a "zen" application, it adapts to you.

I strongly recommend it.

[Version 3.1.4]

Demeter

copiloto had trouble on 03 Aug 2007

Does anybody know of a way to disable the automatic opening of pdf and dmg files after downloading?

[Version 1.2.2]

Shimo

copiloto had trouble on 18 Jun 2007

Shimo 1.0 was working perfectly for me. When I installed this new version, it asks me for several confirmations (that I don't know) in order to connect. I don't really know what to do, since I used it because of its simplicity.

[Version 1.0.1]
