The Services menu is one of the most underestimated features of Mac OS X. It provides useful commands that work from within almost any application on the Mac without hacking them (unlike, say, contextual menu items which run inside another application’s memory space and so can crash it). Both DEVONthink and DEVONagent provide useful commands which allow, e.g., to quickly clip selected text to your database, summarize text, or run a web search. In addition we provide useful Services menu plugins as freeware.

EasyFind, PhotoStickies, ThumbsUp, and XMenu. XMenu is becoming even more useful now with the switch from folder menus in the Dock to stacks in Leopard. 

To finish our Fall updatemania, we have just posted new, universal binaries of BlueService, CalcService, HotService, PDF2RTFService, and WordService. Phew, done! See our news page for more information on the updates.

The leaves here are turning to yellow, red, and brown. Fall is finally here, my favorite season. I spend more work time in our local coffee shop than in my office just because of the lovely view onto Market Square. Nevertheless, we’re not lazy! Today, we have some long overdue updates for you: EasyFind 4.0 and PhotoStickies 5.6. Not enough, we’ve also made PhotoStickies freeware again! Happy searching and sticking! See our news page for more information on the updates.

To delete PhotoStickies favorites or states, select them with the Option key held. This immediately removes them without you having to open them first.
