What's In Your Menu Bar?

I sorta ganked this idea from Life Hacker but it’s something I’ve been meaning to blog about for a while.

So what is the menu bar? It’s the white bar across the screen of every OS X Mac. You can find application menus up there, the clock, spotlight (for Tiger users) and sometimes a variety of other icons. This post focuses on the right side of the menu bar.

I’ve uploaded a screenshot of the applications in my menu bar.

1. Skitch
2. Visor
3. Twitterrific
4. iStat Menus – Bandwidth Monitor
5. VPN
6. Portable Home Directories
7. Apple Remote Desktop
8. iSync
9. System Volume Control
10. International Languages
11. Fast User Switching
12. MagiCal
13. FuzzyClock
14. Spotlight

I run quite a few as you can see, some people only run 1 or 2. How about you?
