One search (electric vehicles | Addictomatic) and I was hooked. Addictomatic is a customisable search / aggregator that returns some fantastic results. You can move stuff around and bookmark it, and the layout stays the same between visits. It’s like a news only version of netvibes or iGoogle, but its a nice way to get some different search results in a single place.
It doesn’t have RSS yet, but it will sooner or later. The Mac News was also quite impressive. Cheers to JB for the link – it’s a ripper.

A great site with some fantastic links. A couple of examples: Flash Video Downloader and the FFX exporter plug-in for iPhoto.Very useful. Also has some nice pics of how apple used to be in the ads and in the flesh. Fantastic – note the hole in the skivvy in the second shot.

Here’s a handy little thing for intel mac owners. Library books tracks your account information with the library and warns you ahead of time if the books are due to be returned.It works with Christchurch City Libraries and several other New Zealand libraries. It can be set up as a start-up item that checks your library account when you start the machine up (or when you connect to the internet). It can also send events to iCal to give you warnings there as well.Well worth a look.
