A few of the apps that I have used that  are also mentioned on the page:

  • Quicksilver
  • Senuti
  • Growl
  • TextWrangler

There are some other obvious ones, like Firefox.  If you haven’t heard of Firefox yet, then you probably don’t know me.

Is there a place where people collect old CS quizes and notes?  I remember feeling a bit jealous of the Word resources that frat kids had…  If there is no such place, I think we should start collecting them here.
