Every so often, an app hits our virtual desk that literally makes us stop, jaw wide open. Take for example Bumptop. This is possibly THE coolest mac app ever made. The Mac desktop is pretty nifty at allowing you to organize icons easily into groups or bundles as you so wish. Compared to Vista, OSX is far superior. But what if some clever developer decided to take this concept of using the desktop like an actual workspace - and make it ...

If your anything like us you'll find actually sourcing new and cool apps pretty tough. Yes you can subscribe to 1500 mac app blogs. Or you could use an app that combines a collection of over 835 apps, categorized for easy browsing, rather like the awesome (and completely free Bodega). Bodega also makes finding an app that does X extremely easy. So if you need an application that helps you concentrate, you'd simple click "Desktop Enhancements" or "Productivity" and check what's ...

Apple's CEO Steve Jobs unveiled the new gadget today,  explaining that this new launch is an enhanced combination of a smartphone and laptop. Construction Experience this and more on its large Multi-Touch screen, measuring 9.7 inches. ...

Digg, Facebook, Flickr, RSS feeds, Google Reader, Twitter. 6 random services, all completely separate and annoyingly so. We hate logging into Digg, then logging into Twitter and then Facebook and slowly clogging up Firefox with 1500 tabs. If only there was an app that could handle all these in one! Oh... there is. And it's called Socialite. To be truly awesome however, this app is really up against the odds. It must have the perfect interface, it must be so simple and ...

No, we don't like James Morrison... The built in iPod / iPhone speakers are great. Great when your out in the town and want to share your music. But when your in your home or workspace, and wish to play your music at a reasonable volume and for several hours on the go, then the iPhone will let you down. Speaker quality degrades the higher the volume and depending on the surface it's resting on - and then there's the problem ...

We review the G-Drive by G-technology. 2TB of awesomeness! A tidy package arrived in our office a few hours ago. The little package from FedEx was duly opened, and neatly nestled inside, we found THE most beautiful hard drive ever. Find out what we think to the brand new 2TB G-Drive in today's review. What a piece of kit! This is quite easily the most beautiful mac accessory ever! The machining and build is second to one. I'm not an expert on ...

Its about time that information storage became easy. This is something we say almost everyday. It's the lack of 'information' storage that leaves our desk looking like something out of a disaster movie. Thankfully, 1 developer has stepped up to the plate and decided to create the most awesome information organizer in the world. Step in Yojimbo, by the makers of BBEdit and TextWrangler. So what is Yojimbo? Yojimbo makes keeping all the small (or even large) bits of information that pour in ...

OmniGrafflePro is an advanced diagramming and design tool. OGP is a serious piece of kit, for any mac user from designer to architect. Everyone will find this program useful in some form.
