For the casual and serious Mac user alike, Apple has posted on their Web site an exhaustive list of tips. There’s probably about 100 or more mini-articles there, covering everything from burning CDs to taking screenshots to working with fonts to… You could spend an afternoon looking at them all and learn quite a bit in the process.
I’ve recently StumbledUpon just about the best list of free Mac software I’ve ever seen: 100 Incredibly Useful & Free Mac Apps by Mac.AppStorm. Very well organized, this list includes many apps that I’ve not heard of but have since added to my computer. If you scroll through the comments, you’ll find some more recommendations, including several strong recommendations for Alfred, as a QuickSilver replacement (as much as I loved QuickSilver, I’ve since returned to using LaunchBar, as QuickSilver isn’t quite reliable on Snow Leopard).
I recently StumbledUpon BumpTop, a commercial product that greatly changes (dare I say “revolutionizes”?) how you use your computer’s desktop. It runs on both Windows and Mac OS X and is quite reasonably priced. The best way to get a sense of BumpTop is to watch the videos available at their site. It’s just cool.
