- Nobody should be downloading and hand-filing journal articles any more. I use Zotero, a Firefox plugin, which I use for academic stuff as well as (e.g.) product data sheets. My wife uses Sente. I know some of my astro colleagues use Papers.
- Quicksilver, a Mac launcher
- Leechblock for keeping oneself away from time-wasting websites
- Nature, botany, gardening
