    Great apps Jeff! I love secrets now…I’m also looking at buying ExpanDrive.

    Are these free apps, or all apps? My dad installed GadgetTrak on my computer, which I think is more effective against theft than iAlertu as it captures video of the thief. I also really like HandBrake.

    iClock Pro is always there for me and replaces Apple's menubar clock but with far more useful features.

    Also really useful is 1password.
