Synergy
As you probably noticed, I’m a huge iTunes fan. For a few years now I had been using YouControl to control my iTunes from the menu-bar so I didn’t have to swap back and forward to iTunes, but can directly access my main controls.
I was alway enjoying the function, but didn’t really like the looks that YouControl had in my menu-bar. Via Boy I got the App Senergy that does almost the exact same as you control, only looks (in my opinion) a bit better.
Ok, so that’s mainly why I posted Synergy (who’s logo by the way is dead ugly, but hey, you won’t see that, so that’s fine).
You can adjust synergy throughout your preferences, and it looks can be modified as much as you want, I believe it’s even possible to create your own skin. So go ahead and enjoy!

Ok, backing up isn’t something we all love to do. I try to make a backup every now and then, and always pay much care to my music collection, since there’s a lot of hard work in there… But there are loads of people who don’t, buy a new computer, throw away the old one, attach their iPod and then come to the conclution it isn’t possible to get your music back from your iPod. Well, for all those out there, there is a sweet solution called iPodRip. This nifty App allows you to attach your iPod, and send its music back into your computers’ iTunes.
This is also a great solution for those of you who love to share music… (Although it’s not allowed, but hey… I’m not crazy ;) )
Enjoy!

Waking up made easy!
This is a great tool which Boy passed me. Before I used iAlarm sometimes, I loved waking up to my iTunes, but hated the looks and the way the App worked (or even sometimes didn’t!). The last few days I woke up with this App, and it’s way WAY better!
It’s designed very well, and works great! You can have multiple alarms, snooze, sleep function and every other reason to take you’re Macbook, iBook, Macbook Pro or even Mac Pro to bed! The only downside is that most of the times my MBP is attached to my stereo, so I have to leave my stereo on, but hey, it’s well worthed!
Check it out, it’s got great futures! Ow, and it’s only 15 bucks!
Of course you’ll find a demo below!
Delicious Library!
Ok, our first of is an app I have been using for years now. Lot’s of us collect DVD’s and love to share these with friends… The only problem is that we and our friends also love to forget who lended which DVD.
Delicious Library is a great tool which makes it possible for you to keep track over who you lended which DVD, it get’s it information from amazon, so adding a DVD is easy as pie. Enter the title, and most of the times you’re done. You can even use you’re iSight which is abble to scan the barcode on the dvd cover and then hook you up with all the info. (Cover, plot information, cost, rating etc.)
BTW, not only does Delicious Library keep track over you’re DVD, it works excactaly the same for books, games and you’re music CD’s. AND its looks are stunning! Just like the developers’s site (Delicious Monster) the App is designed wonderfull, and won some great prices!
It also fits in with you’re iCal calendar which allowys you to keep track over the time you lent you’re DVD’s. If you’ve got some stuburn friends like me, who tend to forget to bring me my DVD’s every time (like my sister ;) ) you can also let Delicious Library spam them about it automaticaly. Since I love my friends, I try NOT to spam them, but hey… like I said, maybe a great deal for those really stuburn ones ;).
The other integration which I love is the way it uses you’re Addressbook. Delicious Library even get’s the picture you attached to you’re contacts.
Really, lending DVD’s was never this much fun.
