It's replaced Preview on my Mac. Has everything I need as a college student and probably has more. [Wish they'd make cross-platform versions... my university only uses PCs, bah.]

Hah, I like to see all the people who use this the same way I do. I have a professor this semester who provides almost all course material by PDF and I desperately needed a highlight feature. That and a plethora of other useful features makes Skim wonderful for me.

Such a loveable app.

Skim is very useful for those who use Apple's Keynote on Leopard.

By cropping region in your pdf file using Skim, you can paste the region into Keynote. This very useful function that was unfortunately disabled on Preview.app on Leopard.

Looks interesting, but highlights don't work correctly for me: highlights on text in Skim doesn't show in Preview, nor in Acrobat Pro 8. :(
However, highlights done with Acrobat Pro 8, are displayed correctly, both in Skim and in Preview.

After I upgraded to Leopard, Preview began behaving very strangely, opening on my secondary (laptop) display instead of my main (external) display, which was a real drag literally. So I've found a solution in Skim for pdfs and ViewIt for most other image files. (Actually ViewIt will open pdfs also, but I like Skim's annotation features etc.

Only reason I use it is because it can receive MSN's "Offline Messages", and even then it seems horribly slow on my MBP. Adium's still my primary IM program.

Skype does it for me wrt video-chat.

Better than Harmonics (can't find a lot of songs), SingthatiTune (unstable) and of course rather more up-to-date than the unfortunate pearLyrics.

really good widget after all...i like how it doesn't paste incorrect lyric when you change the song...everything is good except for one fact if you want it to go download quickly you need to make it so that it only has one source (metro lyrics recommended) and then it's still pretty slow. oh and i miss singthatitune's album artwork catcher which this doesn't have bcus of the simple fact that the iTunes store doesn't have every single piece of album artwork. Plus Harmonic is much faster but other than that it's alot more solid than its companions much more recommended than the rest =)
