Top ten supplemental blogging apps

Chances are if I am sitting at my Mac I am blogging (perhaps not for TUAW, but for some blog somewhere) and so this list of the top ten supplemental blogging apps for OS X caught my eye.

The apps that make the cut are:

• Quicksilver (a TUAW favorite)
• Firefox (though Flock gets a mention)
• Pukka
• NewsFire
• Transmit
• Image Trick
• TextMate
• Voice Candy
• Dictionary.app
• Adium and Skype

A fairly good list, though it doesn't cover some of the apps I use whilst blogging. After the jump you'll find my list of blogging apps I can't blog without.

1. Camino: Simply my favorite browser on OS X.
2. NetNewsWire: Sure, NewsFire is prettier but it just doesn't handle my 600 plus feed list in a usable way, but I have come to rely on reading though stories and opening them in tabs within NNW, without cluttering up my browser window.
3. MarsEdit: Made by the folks who make NNW. Simple and powerful, much like myself.
4. TextWrangler: A great text editor at a great price (you can't beat free).
5. Adium: I have to keep in contact with lots of people (I'm so popular) and doing it all in one app is a real time saver (not to mention it keeps my Dock clutter free).
6. ImageWell: Universal and free, this little image editor is lightweight and fast.
7. iTunes: I like to listen to my slow jams as I blog.

So, what is on your list of apps that every blogger should have at his or her fingertips?
