Menufela is an application enhancer that lets you hide your menubar and/or the spotlight menu item.
You can also set a hotkey to toggle hiding in case you wouldn't like hiding to be on all the time.
Reportedly causes Blue Screen of Death under Leopard, and takes some hacking to remove before you're able to boot again. Probably caused by Application Enhancer - see my comment here about this.
I experienced strange Dock and Exposé bugs after installing v1.5b: quit app from dock didn't work, Dock showed on full screen mode (eg: wth mplayer), exposé showed all windows instead of only windows from the current app... :(
I use the ClearDock module in Application Enhancer, so maybe there's a conflict. Anyway, with menufela disabled, everything is back to normal. :)
Brilliant idea. And so simple. And by Icelandic guys. Wonderful. My other favourite is WriteRoom. But Menufela together with TextEdit is just simple and perfect.
Quite lovely -- helps me achieve computing Zen, especially combined with:
- A plain-color Desktop picture
- hiding the Dock, as diggmacs mentioned
- Quicksilver for Dock-free launching
- MegaZoomer for full-screen goodness in most Cocoa apps
Using this app while also hiding the Dock makes my screen look so much cleaner and bigger to me--and the menubar comes back when I put the cursor at the top, like the Dock does for me at the bottom. Perfect!

Perfect for MacBook users and others with screen space considerations. I'm all about Iceland, too.
Note to the maintainer: It should be "lets."
