If you change your mind, just click on the green arrow back button.
The "Applications" button shows all the applications installed on your system. You can select them and then click on the magnifying glass search button. AppCleaner will search for the related files of the selected applications and delete them, too.

If so, Site Specific Browsers (SSBs) provide a great solution for your webapp woes. Using Fluid, you can create SSBs to run each of your favorite webapps as a separate desktop application. Fluid gives any webapp a home on your Mac OS X desktop complete with Dock icon, standard menu bar, and logical separation from your other web browsing activity.

I [the developer] am also really hoping FontDoc will be rendered obsolete by something in a future version of Font Book. But until then, it's yours, dear denizens of Macdom.

The full-screen Front Row media experience — with its intuitive menus, large text, and brilliant graphics — lets you browse the music, photos, and videos on your Mac mini as easily as you browse music on your iPod. The Apple Remote lets you enjoy your media from anywhere in the room, from your desk chair to favorite sofa. Front Row can even play music, photos, and videos saved on other computers in the house, thanks to Bonjour instant networking. So gather your friends and dazzle them with a slideshow of your vacation pics, a home movie, your latest playlist, or a DVD.

Gmail Browser
Gmail Browser is a web browser that is dedicated to running Gmail (and Google calendar). It's an enhanced version of WebMail.app. The enhancements are:
- correctly handles attachments
- correctly handles mailto: links if you set it as the default mail program

- 'delete all spam' button works
- ability to change homepage
- icon
Why? Well, for me, reading email is usually a work activity, while web browsing is mostly play. And so, when I check my email, I easily get distracted by other web sites. Separating Gmail from the rest of the internet helps me concentrate.
An experimental version, available on the web page, uses the latest versions of WebKit for better mail, docs and spreadsheets support (including rich text email composition).
