I have begin using my mac for a while now and have found some apps to be so useful and if you are new to mac then you will be looking for some good software for you to use for certain tasks.

1. iWork is definitely the best office package I have used and way cheaper than Microsoft’s Office
2. Pixelmator the cheap alternative to photoshop
3. VLC the only video player that plays everything
4. Cyber Duck the best free FTP client
5. Skype the only way to do VOIP
6. Flickr Uploader
7. Ecto I did try MarsEdit2 but just found Ecto to be more user friendly
8. Twitterific the best way to tweet!
9. You Contol Tunes a menu bar app that lets you control iTunes really helpful now I use spaces
10. Caffeine to keep you mac awake when watching video’s

Now you know what I like, these have changed from what I thought I would use which could be good or bad but on whole most of these apps are great for what I do. I suggest you try some of them.
