MacFamilyTree can even be used to create family reports and create contact information via ID cards for your family. The impressive 3D effects it adds to family trees makes navigating it really slick. Most recently, MacFamilyTree has been updated to allow users to search online for your family history, a service which currently is free to use. You can also publish your family trees and history to the web if you have a MobileMe account.

The main drawback of MacFamilyTree however is the fact that it doesn't have the search power and social interaction aspect that something like say Genes Reunited has. It's also prone to lags and crashes when family information files grow quite big according to some users, meaning that you might have problems managing large family trees.

Overall however, MacFamilyTree makes discovering your family tree a slick and easy experience.

What makes Delicious Library stand out from other cataloging software is how it lets you add items to your catalog, either via Bluetooth or by using your integrated iSight camera. This last one is a little tricky, as you need to hold up the bar code right, however once done on a few items you get the hang of it and it works really well.

It's a shame that Delicious Library only works with Amazon. On the other hand this means it has access to information on thousands of items. You'll also be able to buy and sell items directly via Amazon. If you don't want to use iSight or Bluetooth, start typing the name of your item, Delicious Library should find it on Amazon and fill in all the information for you.

The only real drawback to me is handling lent items, which isn't really obvious in the program. For this you're best creating Friends lists.

Delicious Library is a beautifully designed cataloging tool that makes smart use of your iSight camera to easily catalog all your media on your Mac. Highly recommended

We found that iMedia cleverly manages to unite all media files under one interface. And yet, we sometimes felt that browsing movies or music in the application was not all intuitive. For some file types it just seems more natural to browse from separate applications like iTunes for music. Because iMedia fits all your media files in one place, it can feel a bit cluttered. However some people will find this much more useful to browse through their files quickly and get preview of what is on their Mac.

All in all, iMedia Browser is a useful program to view all your media files from one place.

Making use of the latest Apple technology, Media Catalog offers a powerful search tool, which comes in extremely useful once you've been cataloging a good deal of media. You'll also notice the Quick Look tool at the bottom, to get a fast preview of elements.

I enjoyed how Media Catalog always seemed to keep everything well organized. Even better was the statistics section, which gives you extra details on files like size, update or number of volumes.

Now Media Catalog can take some time cataloging your media, especially if you're throwing at it big sized files, however in general its works extremely quickly.

Media Catalog is an excellent and fast application to index all your media.

You can customize the layout of lists you export and send them to the web or to your iPod. Librarian can also import elements from mulitple sources, like borrowers from your Address Book or item information from a number of sites. You can view your Amazon cart from the application and even retrieve things like album covers.

Librarian Pro is a great program to keep updated lists of your favorite items and always be aware of who's borrowed what from you.

Quiet Read is designed to bring some order and logic to storing links for later reading by adding them to your Status Bar. Quiet Read sits in your Menu Bar and allows you to drag links onto the Menu Bar item and store them. Once you've dragged your link to the Quiet Read icon, a number will indicate how many links remain unread. You can read a link simply by clicking on it.

The number doesn't decrease once you've read a link, which is a bit annoying. You have to right-click or CMD-click each link individually to remove them. There's also no way to preview links or tag them which would be useful because the longer your list grows, the less you remember what the links refer to (especially if they are reduced URLs). Note that Quiet Read only works with Snow Leopard.

As a way of keeping better track of your links for later reading, Quiet Read does the job although could definitely be better.

Enter DiskTracker, a simple cataloging utility that helps you keep track of your offline files. If you have several removable media disks, DiskTracker is ideal because it will maintain a local directory of files on removable disks meaning you can search for files without actually having to insert the removable media. As a result, you can still search for items using Spotlight even if the disks aren't connected to your Mac.

One concern is that DiskTracker has been in a beta for some years now and it's strange that the developer hasn't been able to iron out any bugs that have prevented a full release being made. It's possible that it doesn't have much time to administer it because there's no doubting the interface is very dated. However, it has to be said that it seems very stable and if you use a lot of external drives, could mean you find it more useful that Spotlight to find data on your machine.

If you've got a lot of removable media devices, and you're constantly forgetting where your data is, DiskTracker is a simple but highly effective solution.

This application will store anything, be it document, video, image or more. The application offers you a wide choice of ways to save all these, whether by fitting them into groups, labeling, creating smart lists or even adding notes.

You'll also always be see the exact number of items in each area from the sidebar of the program.

It luckily also integrates Spotlight, making it really effective at quickly finding anything.

New items will open up in tabs, which is either annoying or useful, depending on what you want to see. I personally would like to be able to control tabs how I want.

Together also includes an embedded browser to preview bookmarks and links, which is more or less like a simplified version of Safari. Importing is fairly quick most of the time and you can see files being added to categories in real time.
