Another thread got me wondering.. what are some of everyone's favorite applications they use on a daily, or near daily basis? I've found a few new apps through word of mouth and even on here so I'm curious if there's anything new and improved that's out..

Tag&Rename probably tops my list. I use it a lot.


Agent newsreader I use everyday too.
