Scribus: Page layout for Mac for Free!

Scribus is an open source project for basic desktop publishing and offers some great advanced features albeit in a slightly cumbersome and aesthetically functional package.
Carbon Copy Cloner: Clone, Copy and Backup your data…..tasty!
Carbon Copy Cloner has been around for quite some time now but that has not diminished quite how useful this application can be. Its especially useful for making a completely cloned copy of drive and has got me out of trouble many a time. In its latest iteration it has a simplified interface and really feels like a premium application rather than the freeware that it has always been!
Enjoy.
Dropzone: The Swiss Army Knife of Drag and Drop

Its only when using a PC I realise how significant drag and drop functionality is on a mac and how it is mostly intuitive. However there are times when I wish things could be simpler. Step in Dropzone.
Basically Dropzone lives in your dock and you set up various locations and send-to actions like uploading to Flickr or an FTP Server. Then it simply awaits your dragging and dropping escapades!
Sapiens – Like an app launcher…but different…


Sapiens is Waaaaaaay cool! Using a circle gesture with the mouse you can call up a kind of circular dock which you can arrange you application on. Yes its flashy. But hey what mac isn’t?
The Unarchiver – Unarchive stuff….nicer!
![]()
Mac OSX does already have a built in unarchiver utility, this one just supports more formats and looks a bit more maccy! So if you have had difficulty unpacking those darn boxes….give this one a go.
Xmind – Mind Mapping Software, now FREE!

XMind is a piece of software that helps those of us who need to visualise our thoughts in order to stay organised. Having recently gone open source, XMind is now completely FREE!.
Its not the prettiest mind map software going (think omnigraffle etc) but for free it certainly is amazing value!
No, this one is definitely worth a look and has many powerful features.
