- JOS_, on 10/12/2007, -0/+29Direct link to site http://osx.iusethis.com/
- marcusramberg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18Hey dave. That is the plan, but we didn't want to have to worry about 3 platforms at the same time. There will be a windows version of iusethis sometime this fall.
- durandal2005, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14I like how their comment system has a pull-down so that you can flag comments as "spam", "troll", or "useful". Digg could probably use that... are you listening, Kevin?
- davymac, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15ya i wonder if they're going to open up other topic sections like windows/linux, because so far, this is the only semi-digg clone that's worth a damn, because they actually took the idea and added some bit of originality to it and i'd love to see this site grow.
- THX-7168, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12"iUseThis also has the handy feature of storing a list of the applications you use, providing a quick reference if you ever need to re-populate your Applications folder." That does sound like a very useful feature. Hopefully more people will digg this so that iUseThis can become a stronger website.
Also very web 2.0

"though to note, Arne has specifically asked you guys to resist submitting this to Digg for now."
Site's not ready for prime time guys. - actorboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Thank goodness it's a dupe. I missed it the first time,
- mpancha, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4none of the applications on the first page of iusethis really appealed to me, but, the fact that I can add a list of programs to my own little queue is a great feature. Great enough for me to register and become a user.
Must say this is the first time in awhile I've actually bookmarked a site from digg in quite some time. Kudos to whoever found this digg. - Mazr, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5If you check the footer, you'll notice that iUseThis is running on Catalyst which was recently discussed on Digg:
http://digg.com/programming/New_major_release_of_the_Catalyst_MVC_framework
Seems to be holding up well so far. - pips, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Wow, that's rather useful.
- mrASSMAN, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Hottest Apps: http://osx.iusethis.com/hot
- ehmjay, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2its kind of annoying because its not really listing by date or by how many "uses" so theres a lot of repition and searching. still a neat concept!
- wardriver20, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I hope this will end all of those: "10 best apps for Mac" articles.
- crwbot, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4+1 for Catalyst :)
- crwbot, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4I believe the site was still in beta, it's likely they just weren't ready to be dugg. :)
- fohat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Site looks nice, but they need a spell checker.
- scottjl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2very cool looking site.. hope it takes off!
- harpastum, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2very impressive.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Bye Bye VersionTracker
- Singee15, on 10/12/2007, -4/+5And they are down. Not from digg but for updating.
- chriseldred03, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Not ready for the traffic? How much load can "2.5%" of computer users put on a Mac OS site?
Kidding, great site, seems to be running fine right now. - spazzedout, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I agree. That would be nice.
- starbird, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@wardriver20 - Couldn't agree more.
This is a handy site. Some obvious ones there (iPhoto, Mail)? but I assume that is to help build your reccomended list.... - etandrib, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Isn't that what the thumbs up and down are? I like the thumbs up and down better...
- actorboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Great concept. I would like it even more if only third-party apps were listed. For instance, Automator is on the front page right now; I would prefer it turned me on to great apps that I might not already have.
- TheBigGuycouk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1We should add digg to the list, that would end up at the top. great idea tho, any windows or linux versions
- Gills, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I'm surprised more ppl aren't using "Finder".
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Genius, I love it!
- masterood, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0It's not letting me log in anymore and there is a beta message that the creator is having issues - looks like the traffic from Digg might have killed the site.
- reverb, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Like MacUpdate, huh? Where's the giant Jesus ad?

http://www.drunkenblog.com/drunkenblog-archives/000746.html - foofoohead, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2great little site, too bad Digg killed it. This reminds me of how Tycho (penny-arcade) won't link to his friends sites because it kills their site. Oh well.
- Vyx36, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1This is pretty cool.
/me diggs - danglerman, on 10/12/2007, -18/+4this is a big dupe...already on the front page too
http://www.digg.com/apple/Mac_Software_Tracking_Site...Digg_Style - poesybeater, on 10/12/2007, -16/+1If by cool, you mean seeing a list of the top ten freeware apps and stuff made by Apple. No digg.
- 0siris, on 10/12/2007, -23/+3eww. Mac.
How bout an Ubuntu/XP version?
;)
