AddressBookSync: Facebook + Address Book
I was on Facebook one day, when I realized that I have a lot of contacts in my Facebook address book with pictures that I really should have on my mac’s address book. I did a quick search for an app to do this and came across AddressBookSync, a mac application that makes syncing Facebook information, such as pictures, simple and easy.

The new Twitterific: Good just got better
Twitterific was one of the first of many Twitter clients that have been released to the App Store. During its 1.x days, it was a decent client. It was fast loading, had Twitpic integration, and was fairly simple to use. However, it had some major flaws. It scrolled really choppily, some interfaces were inconsistent, and it had crashing problems. But worst of all for me, it was ugly. Now, Twitterific 2.x has been released to build on its previous flaws and add needed features. How does it stand among the competition nowadays? Does it even compare to the mighty Tweetie?

Instant Message with ease using Adium
Adium is a well known, popular multi-protocol instant messaging client which has just hit version 1.3.3, which has tons of new features and has fixed a few bugs. Adium supports most instant messaging services and is also fully customizable in almost every way. It is much easier to use this application instead of separate applications for every instant messaging service. But it doesn’t stop there: it’s free!
