  • dupeGuru Music Edition Removes Duplicate Audio Tracks by Name, Tag, or Content (Windows/Mac/Linux) dupeGuru is a free, open source, and cross-platform utility that will scan and help you remove duplicate audio files from your music library. The app uses filename, creation date, tag information and metadata, and even the audio fingerprint of the file to determine which songs are duplicates, even if they're named differently.
  • Wallflower Turns Off Social Sharing Buttons, Improves Firefox Performance (Firefox) All of those sharing buttons and widgets that live on a lot of web sites may be great for sending posts around to your friends, but they can also drag down your browser. Wallflower, a new extension for Firefox, will disable those buttons and speed up your browsing experience.
  • Command Bar Tweaker Removes Windows Explorer's Blue Command Bar (Windows) Windows Explorer's command bar can contain some useful buttons, but you can get the same features from keyboard shortcuts. This small utility hides the command bar completely.
  • Google Music Downloader Lets You Take Back Your Tunes (Firefox) Google Music is still US-only, invite-only, but if you do use the service and wish you could download some of the tracks you've uploaded for offline play or to sync with a mobile device, Google Music Downloader can help.
  • 7notes for iPad Lets You Take Notes On-Screen with Your Finger (iPad) If you've been waiting for a utility that finally lets you take notes on a tablet screen like you would a piece of paper, either with a stylus or with your finger, 7notes for iPad may be the app you've been waiting for.
  • HappyBirthday Extension Sends Out B-Day Wishes on Facebook So You Don't Have To (Chrome) Apps like FbCal already scour your Facebook friends list and puts their birthdays on your calendar, but what if you want to send them greetings without even thinking about it at all? HappyBirthday can do that.
  • LockGestures Adds Customizable Gestures to Your iPhone's Lock Screen (iPhone) LockGestures makes your iDevice's home screen significantly more functional. Instead of just being able to slide to unlock, you can unlock with new gestures or use those same gestures to open apps, cycle through music, and more.
  • OpenWith Enhanced Makes It Easier to Manage File Type Associations (Windows) Whether Windows isn't sure how to open a specific file, or you'd rather just use a different program than the default, you probably have to deal with Windows' Open With menu from time to time. OpenWith Enhanced replaces this basic tool with one that tells you which programs are the best options, lets you remove associations, and even change icons for specific file types.
  • Bird Bar Makes Your Android Menu Bar Accessible From Full-Screen Applications (Android) Bird Bar gives you access to your notification drop-down, even when the menu bar isn't visible.
  • Android Parental Control Contains Kid Access to Your Smartphone (Android) I've often given my son my phone to play Angry Birds, and at least twice he's managed to delete contacts or emails. Android Parental Control helps users lockdown their phones so kids can only use apps that you have approved; an admin password is required to access any restricted app.
