There is a lot of software available for your Mac OSX and often there are bundles of software on sale that just aren’t that good. But I found this one today that truly has FIVE of my personal favourite programs for only USD$39. Therefore I’m recommending it to you.
The five programs that I use and some description are:
| BusyCal | Because iCal is ugly and works like crap. BusyCal is the best calendaring program I’ve tried ( several). Syncs with Google, iCloud, Exchange etc. and uses ICS files for more glamour |
|---|---|
| Fantastical | Allows you to use natural language to add appointments to your BusyCal – once you have used this, you’ll be chuffed. |
| LaunchBar | the best way to drive OSX with the keyboard. Provides uber-enhancements and deep integration to make everything you do work better. First application I install on a new Mac. |
| Default Folder X | It took me nine months of tinkering with this software before I got it. It enhances the File/Save dialog os OSX into something more keyboard friendly, and completely useful. |
| Tags | In OSX, you can tag every file with a keyword and thus search, reference, cross reference them. I’ll admit, this takes a while to work but start by tagging every PDF you download e.g. Cisco Nexus 7000 documentation gets nexus 7000 documentation so I can search for this in the future. |
If you only only use two of these programs, you are saving money, but to five in a bundle is pretty good.
You can buy the bundle using the link http://www.productivemacs.com/a/635192 :
Disclosure: this is an affiliate link and I’ll make a couple of bucks if you do decide to purchase the bundle. My children would be very grateful!!
So are you going to get this for free then?
No. I already own the five apps I’ve talked about so why buy them again ?
If I get any money it will genuinely go to buying shoes.
