iPulse is a tiny Mac app from the folks at The Iconfactory that was originally introduced back in 2002. Back then, I didn’t even know about the existence of Macintosh systems. iPulse offers a nerdy look at the various system statistics and different status states of your Mac. The app was recently revived, getting it ready for OS X El Capitan and boy did it surprise me. iPulse offers a great way to quickly glance at the inner workings of your Mac through a graphical user interface. The app works with a variety of statistics, including but not limited to:…

Back in March 2013, when we first wrote about Over, the app did a spectacular job of letting you add crisp typography to your photos or images and create art with ease. You could use the app to post your creative work to social networks or even create clever party invites with your own photos instead of generic templates. Over offered a fabulous way to work with a simple image and transform it into something really beautiful using great typography. A year later, Over landed on Android and managed to leave us impressed. It’s 2015 now and the team behind…

Ever since I joined Twitter in 2008, there have only been two favorite apps of mine, apps that I’ve sworn by, apps that I have recommended to anyone and everyone and apps that have given me a lot more in return compared to what I’ve paid for them. These are Loren Brichter’s Tweetie and, of course, Tweetbot. It was sad to see Twitter come in and turn Tweetie into what it is today in the form of the official Twitter app, but Tweetbot more than made up for its demise.
