OS X Apps

Notes from the hunt:

7/8/10 Ok, I'm going to start up again inputting new apps into this list. Not too aggressively, so I don't burn myself out on it, and meanwhile I will think about the future of the list. I also cleaned up a huge amount of spam. Sorry about that everyone.

1/14/10 Ok, after a longer-than-expected break, I'm in the process of diving back into this part of the site. It's gone neglected for the longest time since it started, as 2009 proved to be unexpectedly distracting.

8/19 Start of a brand new year! (Whaa? I mean, I've caught up thru the 2008 app submissions. On to 2009!)

8/18
Cautionary tale for those setting up websites for their new app for the public: It's amazing how many times I get to a website and there are a lot of words and pictures and maybe even a user story having something to do with their app, and yet I find myself asking, Yeah, but what is it? And then I feel frustrated and I close the browser window and generally never return.

8/5 Big progress on the new server, in case you haven't noticed. Sure, no apps in quite some time, but it's way faster now at least. And I'm finally in a position to start populating the db again. Eventually this also means I can move to the new db model and a way for others to contribute. Should be an interesting fall here. Stay tuned.

7/19/09 Ok, I've been busy in the background moving this site and several others to a new Xserve in a new location with a much faster connection as well, so updates have been frozen until the move is complete. Ideally the transition will be so smooth you won't notice when it happens, except that all of the sudden the site responds much faster. After that I hope to get work done on the next generation of this site.

6/22-... Caught-up thru beginning of ~~October~~ November, '08...

Welcome to the OS X Applications page. The oldest running and best-kept list of OS X apps on the Internet.
