- CocoaSQL has been superceded by Sequel Pro. Nice. I like the query window: You can write multiple queries and execute whichever you want via Run Selection: nicer than using the Query History. Ah, but I've just found Querious... not free ($25) but includes SSH tunnelling and user admin, which Sequel Pro does not.
- Mingle 2.3. Still haven't used this in anger, but still think it might be the dogs for collaborative project management.
- C++0x. Better than C++ as we know it? Oh yes, but what's it for? Err.... device drivers?
- Windows 7 the best OS Microsoft has ever produced, but a bit like the latest Chris De Burgh album Footsteps: it's all relative (but at least he can play in Iran).
- Rails 2.3. Rails just gets more exciting.
- Subversion 1.6. Not sure what's in it for me, but it can only be good!
- RubyMine 1.0 Released. Well I've been trying it and there's a lot to like... but it has that horrible Eclipsy Java-ness about it. TextMate, RubyMine, TextMate, RubyMine... dunno. And what about Coda (which is half price at the moment!) and now supports plugins, which means it could soon see more of the bundle cleverness of TextMate.
- Amazon S3 The end of home backups?
- Globrix is the best way to find properties and Zoopla is getting better.
- Got to love Spotify. Oh dear, could be the end of iTunes? Oh deary me... could be coming to iPhone.
- Google Apps gives you free email for your own domain and supports the same users across multiple domains if you like. Excellent Spam filtering. Easier than setting up you own mail server.
- DroboPro Now it's got 8 drives and iSCSI.
- MacPorts is a package manager for OS X, and Porticus is a great way to interact with it.
- ExpanDrive is the FTP/SFTP you wish the OS X Finder had built-in. Time to ditch all the other FTP clients? Maybe, if you don't mind spending $40.
- Project-Voldemort You know, if you need to store blobs of data securely around the place...
- Tin Cloud What a great site!

He lives...
But - subversion? Surely not...
I am alive... just.
Subversion was the default for Rails when I started, but most SCMs are supported now. Rails itself moved to GitHub some time ago. git is clearly better for large open source collaborations like Rails, but has no real benefits for me apart from yet another learning curve and the need to set up something like gitosis.
I take it you no longer use CVS? Otherwise, people who live in glasshouses...
We do, but we are in a transition period.
@Steve: So you're moving out of the glass house then? ;-)
