I am personally quite happy using just the Finder and Spotlight to find and keep stuff organized on my Mac. However some people prefer to have an organizer like Together to handle all their files. 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.

To help you keep your items organized, Together has a shelf side view, into which you can drag and drop elements and jot down notes. It luckily also integrates Spotlight, making it really effective at quickly finding anything.

You can literally browse and organize everything without ever leaving Together's interface. 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.

A nice looking and well structured tool, Together, lets you keep all your items organized your way.

Librarian Pro is a very flexible application to organize all your books, movies, games or whatever you wish to keep a list of. Although the program still feels quite unstable (importing or exporting didn't work properly for me), we'll let that go for now as the program is still a pre-release. What makes Librarian Pro interesting is how easy it is to view your list and create new smart collections.

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.

If LicenseKeeper saves you one lost serial number, it has paid for itself.

I've always thought one day I should really organize my movie collection. After all, it should make it easier, not only to find any movie, but also to lend them to friends. KavaMovies is an application that helps you organize your videos.

In KavaMovies you can organize all movies, from the ones you have seen, to the ones you have and the ones you want. Apart from being separated by title and director, movies can also be found by actor, genre and year among others. You can also write up recommendations and search movies by these. KavaMovies also includes keywords, which is often a good way of organizing material.

If you don't have all the info of a movie, don't panic. KavaMovies can search Amazon, Wikipedia and IMDB for missing info. The application also integrates real well with iTunes and BitTorrent in case you want to buy and download movies.

The only feature I was disappointed with were the filters, as KavaMovies only offers a half dozen and does not let you create your own.

Is your movie collection getting too big? With KavaMovies you can keep it well organized.

iMedia makes it easier to browse all your media from one simple interface. The application can show your photos, videos, music and bookmarks found in your Mac's folders. The top of the interface shows the different folders, which you can open up via a drop down arrow to reveal subfolders. The main part shows a preview of all files in a folder. We quite like the sliding bar, which allows you to easily zoom in and out of files. You can also drag and drop any file that you wish to see in iMedia Browser.

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.

There are more books in the public domain than you would imagine, but it can be a real pain having to go dig for them. Voluminous lets you find free books straight from your desktop.

The application allows you to search the net for free books, store them on your Mac and even save them as PDFs. You will also have a large choice to choose from, as Voluminous is not limited to books in English but offers many others in all sorts of languages including French, Spanish and Portuguese.

You can browse books by categories, like philosophy, law or education and use the search function at the top right of the program window. I would not recommend this last one though as it runs a little slow.

Voluminous offers a 'Starting Points' section, which is mainly a selection of famous novels, a good way to get started if you do not know what you are looking for. 'Latest Additions' also lets you monitor all the books that have just fallen into the public domain and get hold of them.

Once you have downloaded a book (by double clicking it), you can save it as PDF, view in full screen or read inside the program window, using one of nine different themes.

Despite the slow search function, Voluminous is very useful to search, store and read books that have fallen in the public domain. Recommended if you are into literature.

Looking to index all your media? Media Catalog may just be what you're looking for. The application works extremely quickly and indexes everything you throw at it: CDs, DVDs, folders, just drag and drop onto its interface and Media Catalog will index it.

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.

Bookpedia is an excellent application to keep track of the books you have at home. Thanks to a clear interface, you can view all album covers and book information in one go. Using your Apple iSight camera you can scan the bar codes of your books to register them into Bookpedia. And if for some reason you don't have the bar code, Bookpedia will let you look at ten different international search sites and z39.50 library servers. We were also impressed by the Spotlight integration, which makes any piece of information quickly within reach.

The full screen mode, which shows all the album covers, is a nice way of browsing through your titles. Bookpedia also streamlines the way you can create smart collections to keep all your different books organized. We also quite liked being able to create a book wishlist or at least seeing the one you have on Amazon. Bookpedia also lets you keep a note of who has borrowed which book and can generate all sorts of statistics on your collections.

While scanning book bar codes with your iSight camera worked most of the time, it can fail every once a while. Always make sure there's sufficient light and that the bar code is clean. One other little drawback we could also point out is that Bookpedia doesn't let you sort by author last name.

Apart from that, Bookpedia is a top notch application to keep your book collection organized.

To save you time and effort, DVDpedia retrieves all DVD information from the Internet and lets you arrange your DVDs in any which way you like. Using DVDpedia comes naturally because of its familiar iTunes style interface.

DVDpedia lets you retrieve information about your movies (both VHS and DVD) from various sites on the Internet. The main info generally comes from the Amazon sites (US, UK, Germany, Canada, France, Japan) but DVDpedia also gives you access to the Internet Movie Data Base (IMDB) as well as an additional Spanish, French, Italian, Australian and German movie site.

You can search using pretty much any keyword - from a director to the movie title or an actor's name. Or use a combination of them all. If you have a scanner, you can find your movies even faster. Just open a search window and scan the UPC of the movie. DVDpedia does the rest for you. Cuecats, modified or not, are supported too. (At the moment, scanning works best with the Amazon US site.)

Once you have gathered all the info for your DVDs, organize them any which way you want. Set up collections; for example, one for your favorite director, one for comedies and one just for Cameron Diaz. Once you've created a collection, you can simply drag and drop to add DVDs. Or create smart collections that update themselves automatically everytime you add a DVD. Just set the criteria for the smart collection and DVDpedia will organize itself. You can also make a wish list for DVDs you don’t own yet and a borrowed list to remember who borrowed what movie at what date and when it is due back.

You can export your library, or just a collection, using the HTML templates that come with the program. Or, if those are not enough, you can write your own templates. Check out the Help file on how to. Of course, there are also other export formats available, like tab delimited, comma delimited and .dvdpedia, a unique format which works very well if you want to make a backup of your library or send a collection to friends.

Delicious Library will appeal to those of you that feel the urge to catalog all your discs, books, DVDs and any other media filling up your home. The application can store thousands of items, which are instantly searchable and easy to organize in different categories. You'll enjoy Delicious Library's shelf view which gives you a great vision of all your stored items.

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
