+### General ###
+
+* *Operating System* : [Mac OS X][switch]: heaven, after the purgatory of Linux 
+  and the hell of Windows.
+* *Browser*: [Firefox][firefox]. On a Mac, [Camino][camino].
+* *Email*: [GMail][gmail], "search, don't sort" really works.
+* *Text Editor*: [TextMate][textmate], you have to buy it, but it's worth every
+  penny. There are rumours that it's been converting (recovering) Emacs
+  users (addicts). Unfortunately, it's Mac only. An alternative is
+  [jedit][jedit] (GPL, Java).
+
+### Development ###
+
+* *Build system*: [cmake][cmake], throw the [autotools][autotools] away.
+* *Source code control system*: ditch CVS for [subversion][subversion].
+* *Project management*: [Trac][trac] tracks everything.
+* *Scripting language*: [Ruby][ruby] is Japanese pragmatism (and has a [poignant][poignant] guide). 
+   Python, you say? Python is too academic and snob:
+
+      $ python       
+      Python 2.4.1 (\#1, Jun  4 2005, 00:54:33) 
+      Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
+      >>> exit
+      'Use Ctrl-D (i.e. EOF) to exit.'
+      >>> quit
+      'Use Ctrl-D (i.e. EOF) to exit.'
+
+* *Java IDE*: [JBuilder][jbuilder] is great software and has a free version (IMHO better than Eclipse). Java
+ is not a pain anymore since it gained [generics][java-generics] and got opensourced.
+* *Mark-up language*: HTML is so 2001, why don't you take at look at [Markdown][markdown]? [Look at the source of this page](data/misc_markdown.png).
+* *C++ libraries*: 
+    * [QT][qt] for GUIs.
+    * [GSL][gsl] for math.
+    * [Magick++][magick] for manipulating images.
+    * [Cairo][cairo] for creating PDFs.
+    * [Boost][boost] for just about everything else.
+
+
+### Research ###
+
+* *Writing papers*: [LaTeX][latex]
+* *Writing papers & enjoying the process*: [LyX][lyx]
+* *Handsome figures in your papers*: [xfig][xfig] or, better, [jfig][jfig].
+* *The occasional presentation with many graphical content*: 
+  [OpenOffice Impress][impress] (using the [OOOlatex plugin][ooolatex]); 
+  the alternative is PowerPoint with the [TexPoint][texpoint] plugin.
+* *Managing BibTeX*: [jabref][jabref]: multi-platform, for all your bibtex needs.
+* *IEEExplore and BibTeX*: convert citations using [BibConverter][bibconverter].
+
+### Cool websites ###
+
+* *Best site in the wwworld*: [Wikipedia][wikipedia]
+* [Mutopia][mutopia] for sheet music; [the Gutenberg Project][gutenberg] for books; [LiberLiber][liberliber] for books in italian.
+* *Blogs*: [Bloglines][bloglines]
+* *Sharing photos*: [flickr][flickr] exposes an API you can use.
