“Certified Mac Software” means I like it. Uh huh.
Yes, you can create and manage multiple iPhoto libraries by holding the Option key and starting iPhoto, but iPhoto Library Manager is waaaay cooler. Multiple libraries, quick view, sharing, sync with iPod, copy photos between libraries, split libraries, merge libraries.
iPhoto Library Manager adds an additional level of control over your iPhoto collection by allowing you to keep your photos in multiple libraries and transfer them back and forth without losing your keywords, ratings, and all the other information you’ve worked to assign to your photos.
9WR - iPhoto Library Manager: Manage, switch, merge, copy photos, sync, share multiple libraries.
Somehow I neglected to provide a mini-review for a utility I use every day for over 10 years. DragThing. Simply put, it’s a floating, expanding, customizable dock that holds icons to all your favorite Mac apps, utilities, games, documents, hard drives, folders. You’re one click away from almost anything on your Mac. DragThing is highly configurable, loaded with customization options, and multiple docks or multiple tabs, or both. Highly recommended.
The original dock designed to tidy up your Macintosh desktop. It puts all your documents, folders, and applications just a single click away. Highly flexible, it allows multiple docks, each customised to suit your exact needs.
9WR - DragThing: Indispensable, feature-laden, easy-to-use launch dock for applications, folder, documents.

Good way to delete all the accompanying files created by an application you want to delete. Crowded field of utilities. CleanApp was our favorite, though new version has been buggy. AppZapper has a nice interface and best sound effects. AppDelete, like AppCleaner, is free.
AppCleaner is a small application which allows you to completely and properly uninstall unwanted apps. It isn’t, in fact, sufficient to just delete an application. Installing an application distributes many files throughout your System using space of your Hard Drive unnecessarily. AppCleaner can find all these small files and safely delete them.
9WR - AppCleaner: Utility deletes application and other associated files and preferences.
