3 Cool Mac Apps

WiFi Explorer - $1.99
A cool little utility that can provide major results. WiFi Explorer scans the wireless networks available and gives your some pretty important info. Besides providing signal strength and security data, WiFi Explorer can also show you which channel networks are using. This is super helpful, because channel interference is a major culprit of wireless signal loss. If your neighbor's router is on channel 11, move your network to channel 8. Less interference means better performance.


I Love Stars - $.99
The beauty of simplicity. I Love Stars simply puts a a star meter in your menu bar. This allows you to quickly rate your iTunes library while in another app. I Love Stars will even alert your to unrated songs with a subtle effect, a neat addition. With your songs rated, you can create more powerful smart playlists.


MacTubes - Free
The best way to download videos from YouTube. A clean, simple interface, allows you to search the millions of videos available. A secondary click on a result gives your several options for download, including iPhone/iPad/iPod/Apple TV ready versions, even in HD! A great way to grab music videos.
