I know there are a few other Mac users here, and while I can't remember if this has been done before (Mac and OSX are both three letters, one short of search validity), I thought I'd share a few apps that I find indispensable or at least nice to have at my disposal.
Quicksilver
An application launcher and search utility that is easily accessed via a shortcut key combination (I use Control+Q) and a typed search string. For a more concise description, this link should be helpful.
Transmit
The best FTP client on OS X. Steer clear if $17.95 makes your skin crawl.
xPad
A plain and rich text that stores all your files in one place so they are easily accessible directly from the application window.
Meteorologist
Nice little menubar app that displays the current and forecasted weather for multiple lcoations. Nothing fancy, but does the job well (with plenty of information).
iStumbler
Simple utility to find WiFi hotspots, with the option to auto-connect among other features.
Honourable mentions:
Statoo, a floating widget bar; Onyx, a system maintenance utility; and of course Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird.
