Luminance is fast becoming my main go-to application for the tweaking of photograph’s on my iPhone. It has a wealth of controls that just beats Camera+ fair and square.
It was never an expensive app in the first place, but if you need a gentle nudge then grab it now.
Great news that Omnifocus now works with Siri, so if you head over to the OmniGroup blog you’ll see a few videos on how to set it all up. H/T @imrogb
After finding PopClip on MinimalMac I have quickly grown to like this tiny, but useful, Macintosh application.
Something very intuitive about selecting text and this tiny little PopClip appearing. It also quickly disappears if you select text accidentally and don’t need to do anything with it, so it doesn’t get in the way.
Cut, copy & paste, fast. No need to right-click, or use keyboard shortcuts.
Search the web. Search Google for the selected text, with one click.
Open links. If you select text containing a URL or email address, PopClip can open it for you.
Spelling and dictionary.Access dictionary definitions and spelling corrections, in any app.
Day-O is a practical time and fly-out calendar for your Macintosh menu bar by Shaun Inman.
Nice little cosmetic plugin for WordPress which changes default Arial to Helvetica. One for the purists which of course means I already have it installed.

My friends over StudioDalton have released another fine app: it’s called Clocky and it’s specifically for the Apple Mac.
Clocky will prove itself useful if you have a practical need to keep on top of global times, or if you are just particularly interested. As a fair number of my clients are quite different time-zones, being able to quickly tell at a glance when they are sleeping or due to rise will be quite useful.
Clocky is very discreet and is conveniently accessible via the Apple menu.

From the website :
Sidestep is an open-source application for Mac OS X that sits quietly in the background, protecting your security and privacy as you browse the web. When Sidestep detects you connecting to an unprotected wireless network, it automatically encrypts all of your Internet traffic and reroutes it through a secure connection to a server of your choosing, which acts as your Internet proxy. And it does all this in the background so that you don’t even notice it.

Read MoreI have one file on my Mac that contains some pretty sensitive information: passwords, account numbers etc, yet I have been quite lazy about securing it. All it would take is a home burglary and I could potentially be in a lot of trouble.
Time to remedy.
Found this neat application via Google search, “MEO File Encryption for Mac 1.11“, and it works perfectly. The beauty is you can create a self decrypting file that doesn’t require the software to be installed, you just need your pass-key to decrypt it.
This one file is now encrypted and I have search and deleted all backed-up and archived versions of that file. Feel much better.

As a side-note, did you realise you can encrypt Evernote text? If you use Evernote to save important personal information, you can encrypt it for security. It works on all versions, including iPhone. All you do is enter the pass-key to read that previously encrypted file. http://forum.evernote.com
Just downloaded a neat plug-in for Mail after reading about it in Macworld. Mail Perspectives is awesome, just what I need, compact windows for my Inbox etc. Now you can just keep what you need in view, opposed to the whole Mail app window.
You get a 30 day demo; worth trying out if you like to keep your desktop neat and functional.
