¡Huevos!

There's a sweet little desktop app for OSX called Huevos.

It's tiny and free, and it's a search helper. You pick a search site, type in your search, and your browser of choice fires up and searches. I recommend it!

You can drop in your own searches, so I took out the ones I didn't need and put in somei new ones. In case anyone is interested, my new ones were:

Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/s?index=blended&field-keywords=%@

Blinkx: http://www.blinkx.com/videos/%@

Google Video: http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=%@&sitesearch=

IMDB: http://imdb.com/find?s=all&q=%@&x=0&y=0

Powells: http://www.powells.com/s?kw=%@&x=0&y=0

So if you commit a murder or win the lottery or get misidentified as Manuel Noriega on CNN you can go stealth! Or if you get really mad and decide to unscreen all your private gossip stuff and move to Equatorial Brigadoon, etc.

The Rösle Garlic Press (Amazon link)

It reliably crushes even two cloves at once. You don't have to keep cleaning it as you use it. And when you're done, you swing out the grate and put it under the tap and rinse it off, done. None of that "is all the garlic out yet?" stuff, and it doesn't have one of those plastic "cleaner" thingies that will promptly get lost. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

This is a cool google maps application for bus travel in Seattle, with routes, traffic conditions, etc. We should have this here! Oh wait, our public transit isn't worth mapping. Never mind!

Kung Foo points out that Apple has hidden away some useful Airport wireless management stuff, including the Airport Management Utility and a client monitor. The Management Utility is especially useful. Direct link to the .dmg download is here (command click and save).
