This time not a complete app, but a Firefox addon. This is a very neat addon which allows you to tell Firefox which domains should never be cached.
This comes in really handy while testing Flash/XML applications since those XML files always tempt to get stuck in your cache.

Ever since I found out you can just upload .tar.gz files to a server and unpack them there I’ve been a great fan of these files. It saves you ages of uploading time.
TarPit creates Tar archives by drag-n-drop. Compression options include GZip BZip2, and Compress with adjustable compression levels. Also supports MacBinary and AppleDouble options for saving resource forks, as well a fully customizable omission-list that lets you easily exclude certain files from your Tar-archives (handy for filtering out those invisible files that appear on non-Macs).

Dropbox is the easiest way to share your files online. After downloading the app it takes you trough a few steps and registers your online account (takes about 30 seconds). You can either choose the free option (2gb online storage!) or the “pro” option for 9,99 USD/month (50 gb!!!).
Update: use my referral link and get 250 MB of extra storage (free)
Drop box gives you a local folder. Any file you drag in there will be send to their servers. You can choose between public and private files, so you know you’ll have those really awkward photo’s stored away safe!

A lot of people drag their application right on the bin to uninstall. Nothing wrong with that, although most people don’t realize your not removing everything. Most of the times the application settings and some more stuff is still stored in your library.
AppZapper is a small application which you drop your applications on and then searches for the stuff the app would otherwise leave behind in your library.
A quick punch on zapp is enough to delete your application with a little more power then just dropping it in the bin.

The effects of caffeine finally on your screen.
Watching full-screen video’s via Quicktime, DVD player, VLC or what so ever doesn’t make your screen fall asleep. But whenever you start watching movies online (YouTube, Vimeo) your screen dims within a minute or so and finally bails out. Darkness is staring you right in the face. Eventually you decide to wake it all up again to start over in 1 minute.
Annoying. Very annoying! Caffeine to the rescue! It does nothing more then keeping your screen awake for the amount of minutes you tell it to.
