Hey I was going through my blogs tonight and read on Josh‘ blog that they made the switch to Propresenter.

Just thought I should give a shout out to Brad and the team @ Renewed Vision. They are getting huge. I first started using Propresenter about 3 years ago @ Highlands. It is an awesome program.

I would highly recommend it over mediashout.

I am pushing to get it at Truth.

Just used this program because I was down to 500 mb of space left on my mac. I know have almost 4 gb of space. Use Monolingual. It rocks!.

Best Mac Application

A friend of mine got a mac recently. He hasn’t used Mac OS in a very long time. He was asking me about applications that I use.

I told him about spirited away, Snapz Pro, Cyberduck, Bloglines Notifier, FCP Rescue, Mac the Ripper, Mediafork/handbrake, Monolingual, mpeg Streamclip, and Text Wrangler.

But I did not tell him about Quicksilver. I use quicksilver more than any application. It’s uses are really unlimited. Check out this link to 43folders for any post related to Quicksilver, this is where I heard about it (and learned how to use it).

Cool Program

If you have a mac you have to check out this program! It is something I have used for a while and I love it. I was just iChatting a friend of mine and told him about it. I figured I would put the link up here.

Basically it hides inactive applications. Pretty simple idea. Instead of hitting Apple + H to hide a program, it does it for you automatically.

One note, tell it to exclude finder. If it hides finder then you may be working in (insert fav app here) and hit apple + h to hide and it won’t hide. This is because finder is hidden and you have to have one app not hidden.

Also I have my inactive time to set to 90 secs if anyone is curious.

Hope you enjoy!
