A couple utility apps

[foxfirefey]

These are a couple recommended utility apps that I might want to try out at some point, but haven't yet, and am going to share them here so I will have a reference in case I need them later:

HUSH -- silences the notification center for a given amount of time, free
Bartender -- helpful for managing the awkward proliferation of menu bar apps, trial + buy at $15

Thank you for linking me to Hush. That Notification Centre can be annoying (I use Growl anyway), so this is very much appreciated. :3

this comment has justified this post! I felt a little leery about posting apps that I hadn't even tried, but they both seemed so useful that I figured somebody would like to know about them even if I couldn't give a solid rec.

I'm glad to hear it. :) I've also given Bartender a go as my Menu Bar has been getting a bit out of hand too, and I was wondering if there was an app that would sort it out...

The notification center drives me nuts, so thanks! I can do commandline system stuff but prefer not to.

I love Bartender :) It's been useful for hiding away clutter, especially those apps that run in the background that I very rarely want to tinker with.

Co-signed, Bartender is rad.

Bartender is great. I have stuff in there that is useful occasionally (Transmit, wifi connection, etc) but clutter up the bar more often than not. Checking out Hush.
