John Welch's 22 underappreciated Mac apps
Like They Might Be Giants, the Mac blogosphere has two big Johns: Gruber and Welch. While both are highly informative/informed and entertaining writers, there are some key differences. Welch's blog has to be described as Not Safe For Work. Still, he cleans up right nice. His recent Top 22 Mac Products article for InformationWeek was a considered, cogent and eye-opening take on the "software you can't live without" story. As we've noted for the past couple of weeks, thanks to writers like Welch, Tom Yager, Seth Weintraub and Ryan Fass, there's more and more rosy Mac coverage in the IT industry trade publications. From the perspective of Mac-centric IT folk like yours truly, this is definitely a Good Thing.

Nice list, Ecto (my blogging tool of choice) was 22 on the list. I thought it was interesting that a Microsoft Product (Entourage) was #13 on the list. I agree with the PDF at #3 don't know what I would do without this feature. Really nice. Now I have to go check out some of those other apps that were mentioned.
