Use Chax to add a bunch of cool features to Apple’s iChat that Apple chose not to give you. Growl notification, activity log, auto-accept file transfers, AV chats, and screen sharing, and more.

Reference Miner searches the Internet to find and display reference information from PubMed, Amazon (US, UK, Germany, France, Canada, and Japan), and the Library of Congress.

Clever audio recorder looks like a standard cassette tape deck. Saves audio in MP4/AAC format. Safety feature includes inability to record over other recorded tapes. Create labels and box liners. Tapes can be saved in iTunes and copied to iPod.
Audio recorder exclusively for Mac OS X Leopard, designed with a quick-capture workflow in mind. You’re never more than a single mouse click (or keystroke) away from making a new recording, which are called, unsurprisingly, ‘tapes’. TapeDeck records directly to compressed MP4-AAC audio, making it equally useful for quick high-fidelity samples or hours and hours of lecture.
9WR - TapeDeck: Audio recorder uses cassette tape style, records in MP4/AAC.
