Ok, I knew this for awhile but didn’t get around to looking at them till this morning. Â The first one I saw that I loved was the Google Dual View that allows you to split the browser window into two frames. Â Awesome of you are copying and pasting from window to window. Â Amazingly useful for me anyhow.
Polaris Google Analytics on 12seconds.tvPolaris Google Analytics on 12seconds.tvSWEET! A Google Analytics desktop application made in Adobe Air. Â Not great for hardcore data mining but a great executive overview. Â You can download it free for one website or pay $15.00 for all the sites you want. Â This is a great little app to monitor your sites very easily.

Artisteer 2 is an amazing program designed to make professional templates for the leading content management systems: Joomla, WordPress, Drupal and now DotNetNuke.
Artisteer 2 uses an interface similar to the Microsoft 2007 Suite that takes you through the template development process step by step. Â This software is great for developers who want to make simple websites for their clients.
There are two purchase options: Home Edition and Standard. Home edition will only allow you to develop WordPress Templates but only costs $48.95. Given the ever increasing flexibility and power of WordPress this may be all you need. Still, with the Standard edition coming in at $129.95, it adds a full library of textures, photos and other aspects to improve your design.
While this is a great tool for throwing out Templates, the code level is pretty heavy but still maintains compliancy. Â I seem to have some issues with drop-downs in Joomla, but there has been an update since that may have fixed this issue.

Digsby on 12seconds.tv is a free IM client that I use to consolidate all of my contacts into one source. I initially only used Google Talk, but found that a lot of my clients used other IM clients such as AIM, Yahoo and MSN. Because of this I needed a solution that would allow me to communicate with everyone from one location. I found Digsby.
The Digsby Chat application is free to download and use. They make money through some opt-in ads during the install. If you don’t want to bog down your computer, simply don’t install them. The other option they use to make some money is to utilize your CPU processor while your computer is idle. This CPU time is leased out for research. You can read more about this at the Digsby site.
Digsby also allows you to connect to social networks like FaceBook, MySpace & Twitter. I also use a Digsby widget on the GeekEpic homepage so people can IM me.

Taskbar Shuffler on 12seconds.tv
love this little program. If you are a Firefox user, you know that you can rearrange the browser tabs in any order at the top of the page. This allows you to do the same thing on your Windows machine with your programs.
You can download Taskbar Shuffle here.
Excellent application that gives you a complete view of your hard disks. This application will display files in block relative in size to the size of the file they represent. Whew… Make sense? No? Look at the screenshot. This is an awesome program to clear up some room on your disk drives. When you run it and sequoia scans your hard disk you will almost certaintly find large files you forgot about, taking up disk space. You can download SequoiaView for free ( FreeWare)
