One of my favorite games of all time, Journeyman Project 3: Legacy Of Time has been ported to OS X! Totally picking up a copy of this.
As Arthur might say: “Welcome… to my brain! All that I am is contained in that sphere.”

I’ve posted about this service previously, but they’ve come out with a referral program (you save $5, I make $5), as well as added the ability to sync your Address Book contacts with Gmail’s contacts, and it works VERY well. Just be sure if you want the latest & greatest to download the beta version.
Lifehacker is such a great website. For example, we’ve got this great app
Pause iTunes Whenever You Unplug Your Headphones with Breakaway:
Freeware application Breakaway automatically pauses and resumes your iTunes music when you unplug or plug in your headphones, perfect for using your laptop in public places. Not only will the auto-pause prevent you from blaring music to everyone around you if you accidentally unplug your headphones, but you also won’t miss a beat if you step away with your headphones and then come back and plug in. Breakaway is freeware, Mac OS X only.

If you’re an OS X user, and you’ve upgraded to Leopard & found the new Stacks feature lacking, check this out: Stacks overlay
It seems I’m merely relaying some other blog posts, but damn, this one is just too funny. Ihnatko’s humor is spot-on, and I like his analysis of how Leopard is about all the little things bundled together, as opposed to one single “killer app.”
Andy Ihnatko: What’s Leopard Really Worth?
I think the way to sum up the correct level of anticipation for Leopard is to compare it to a movie that stars Gene Hackman or Michael Caine. You know that it’s going to be worthwhile… but the coin’s in the air as to whether it’s worth seeing right away.
And my favorite quote:
And now we have the de-wussification of Mail. Mail was once a candy-apple red Mazda Miata. Now it’s a Ford pickup with a gun rack and a rear-window decal of a cartoon Calvin peeing all over the Microsoft Entourage icon.

Seriously hilariously awesome idea:
