Ask HN: What ten apps could you not live without?
In a vein of which book you would want if you were trapped on a desert island; what ten applications could you not live without (including both games and productivity)?
There was a time when I would've listed mutt, procmail and getmail at the front of a list like this, but mutt doesn't seem to play well with flaky connections, and with desert island broadband being what it is...
