Free until January.
I’ve never used it, but its some free peace of mind for your Mac.
Chrome for a Cause
For each tab you open in Chrome you raise money for charity, and at the end of each day you get to choose how to donate it.
I really shouldn’t have to do this to make sure my phone charges. Great design Sony Ericsson.

Sleep Timer for iTunes
I like to listen to music as I go to bed, but I don’t like to be awoken by a loud song in the middle of the night. Thats where the iTunes Sleep Timer script comes in. Just put in the amount of time you want iTunes to play for, and at the end of that duration, the script will pause iTunes. Its wonderfully simple.

TextEdit has a very simple outlining mode, perfect for jotting down quick notes with a bit of structure. To activate it, hit ⌥ + ⇥ while editing an RTF document.
Yet another reminder of the oft forgotten power of TextEdit. Want to know even more TextEdit magic you are likely unaware of? Well, your in luck as I have written about it before (including the outlining feature).
Update: One more thing I forgot to mention. All of this stuff works in anything that uses your Mac’s built in text editing engine. So, for instance, making a note in Yojimbo? Works there. MacJournal? Yep, works there too.
Since I discovered Outline mode in Microsoft Word I have been looking to a simple, lightweight alternative. I have searched on and off for years, but nothing came close. Today I finally found out that the humble TextEdit has been sitting under my mouse with the very feature I wanted.
