This is the cooking app of my dreams. There's a service so you can import recipes from your browser or email, then just select the ingredients/directions areas (or other headings if they are there) and voila, your recipe is in souschef! I also love that you can click the dropdowns in each heading to search for more recipes by a certain author, or click to substitute ingredients. It's also nice to be able to select that you always have a particular ingredient so that it doesn't always wind up on the grocery list. And then there's the blogging features, and the full screen cooking feature.. which looks really awesome, but I haven't been able to try it out yet. Maybe one day when I have a computer in the kitchen! I think this would be really awesome paired with an iPad companion app that syncs your recipe library.
I used to keep a daily diary, but I quit about 8 years ago because I couldn't keep myself motivated to do it every day. Chronories gives just enough of a gentle reminder to at least put my mood and a photo for each day, and invites me to write an entry too. If I don't have time to write an entry, that's okay, because it catalogs my emails and other activities that give huge insight into what happened that day. I think this would be a 5 star app if it had an iPad companion with syncing, as well as the ability to blacklist or whitelist email addresses from being stored. The only feature that seems unreliable for me is the "computer usage" feature, which seems to be at 100% 24 hours a day, even if I put the computer to sleep. Otherwise it's an amazing app and it is helping me do what I couldn't do before!
This app has been phenomenal at helping me find out where all my hard drive space goes. I had a seemingly endless task of looking for giant files buried deep within the depths of my hard drive (which looked like an episode of the TV show "Hoarders" at the time) and Daisy Disk helped me find everything I was looking for.
