- iterm2 - I haven't even begun to scratch the surface on all it's capabilities.
- F.lux - Good for the eyes ;-)
- Dropbox - Important files from any location.
- KeePass - I love it for it's cross platform goodness. I run it on Linux, Windows, MacOSX & Android. I keep the database available to all via DropBox.
- ClipMenu - Just started using this. I'm a long time user of Parcellite clipboard manager in Linux land.
- Time Out - Helps me remember to take short breaks throughout the day. I generally use Workrave on other platforms.
- Chicken of the VNC - Nice way to access a GUI session via either TightVNC or X11VNC running on my CrunchBang (#!) Linux workstation when I'm not in the office. Course I mainly just ssh in from iterm2.
- Chrome - I know studies show Safari is faster on MacOS X, but I use chrome on Linux and Windows so why not here, too?
Given all that, what's the best way to keep all of those and a few other less crucial tools up to date? On my Debian or Ubuntu based systems it's just a matter of doing a `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade' (or dist-upgrade). Voila' all my software is upgraded. I remember back in the day reading about Fink and ports for Mac OS X. Anyone using them? Got other suggestions?
