I bought SimpleRSS.com a little while ago with the intention of building an alternative and open-source RSS reader. If anyone's interested in acquiring the domain, message me! ;)

+1 for Checkvist. This tool is so versatile it's unbelievable. I find myself using it for everything, from time tracking to note taking.

[non-constructive criticism]
No offline maps?! The Google boys need to go out more and see how the real world uses their phones.
Very often, I found myself needing maps the most in areas with poor network reception (e.g., the Swiss Alps) and in places where data connectivity was not an option (e.g., London underground). I was very excited to hear about HTC implementing such a feature in their latest Sense builds and I hope Google will catch up and make it a native feature.
Edit: Okay, it seems they know about the problem and apparently the new version of Google Maps for Mobile will have some sort of offline caching capabilities. Hurray!

Well Opera has gone Cocoa since 10.5 and feels much more native than it used to.
Still, I wish it had the same level of polish as Chrome does on OS X.
