There are quite a few FTP clients out there, but one stands out the most in my mind and that’s, Transmit. It’s the best ftp client I’ve ever used. When I started to work at a local ISP I was in a hurry to find a great client that could do SFTP. I looked around and found a few, but they didn’t have exactly what I was looking for. Then I saw Transmit and I knew I had found my tool.

Ever thought that there would be a better way to manage your Terminal.app? Well now there is, Visor. Which is a small add-on for the terminal from the creators of Quicksilver that lets you get a Quake style window that is activated with a command (command + e is what I use). Visor can be very useful with keeping an uncluttered desktop and accessing a terminal with a small keystroke. Being a constant user of terminal for accessing my home file server, at times alt-tab or Exposé can become quite redundant.

You love your Mac right? Wish for a better system cleaner? Well with OnyX you get a system cleaner, and then some.

After taking OnyX for a test drive, I found that there are many cool features. In total there are eight menus; Parameters, Maintenance, Cleaning, Automation, Log FIles, Unix Utilities, Info, and Preferences. All of them have many sub menus, but we’ll just take a look at the main ones for now. Here’s a quick run down:

Del.icio.us, we all know and love it. Spawning the ever so popular Digg. Now saving your bookmarks to del.icio.us just got easier with Pukka.

This is probably one of the most simple Mac apps I’ve seen. It serves the full functionality of the del.icio.us bookmarks page, without the hefty loading times of a web page. Just login with your information and start adding your favorite pages.
