Keep Your Mac Happy

It's the Mac Maintenance Post! Working where I do, us Mac users are outnumbered big time, so calling our internal help group for Mac help is practically futile. So, my boss, my pal and I (all in the same group and all Mac users - go figure) troubleshoot most of our own problems. Here's a list of indispensible Mac utilities and sites that make our lives easier, and if you've got a Powerbook or a computer that's not on 24/7, will makes your's better too:

MacJanitor: Runs all the maintenance scripts that are supposed to run in the middle of the night. If you turn your machine off at night, they never run, which will make your Mac crawl like mine did until I ran this.
RebuildDesktopX: Takes you back to the good ol' days of Apple+Option booting, doesn't it? Nope, this is just a little application and does some magical cache deleting and really helped me get some speed back.
OS X Troubleshooting: A great site for OS X tips and tricks to keep your Mac happy.

You can use Textile formatting in your comments (but no HTML). Here's a quick cheatsheet:

Bold text: *this will be bold*. but this isn't.
Italics: _this will be in italics_, this won't.
Links: "link text":http://url.com
If you know the rest, go for it.
