SecondBar Puts a Menu Bar on All Your Macs Monitors

Mac only: Multiple monitors do great things for your desktop space, but your menu bar sticks to one screen. If you’re looking for more menu access, free utility SecondBar puts one at the top of each monitor.

As veteran Mac users know, each application’s menus fill in the menu bar at the top of the desktop, not the window of the app itself, as in a Windows desktop. When you have a lot of apps open in different spots, it becomes inconvenient to access an app’s preferences or deeper features with a mouse. SecondBar adds a customizable menu bar to your second, third, or tenth monitor, letting you keep your focus on one screen at a time.

SecondBar is a free download, Mac OS X only.

Path Finder Updated to v5.0.9

Path Finder is a file browser that has a streamlined, beautiful new interface, lots of new features, and tons of improvements and fixes throughout. It has been completely rewritten and optimized for Mac OS X 10.5 and represents over a year and half of hard work.

I began using Path Finder myself a little over 3 weeks ago, and already find it to be one of the most indispensable applications I own. And that’s coming from a hard-core Finder wonk. With a plethora of cool features–both obvious and hidden–this app won me over quick, which is not an easy thing to do when it comes to shareware.

If you haven’t looked at Path Finder recently, I recommend you do–just to see what you might be missing.
