Ever wanted to type or sketch something quickly right there, on the Mac OS desktop, without first opening an application for it? Well, Conjure (now at v.4.1) offers you just that. You can do more than type or sketch, too, but actually brainstorm with mind maps. The new version is Snow Leopard compatible and offers new backdrops, a Knife tool "for cutting anything", and more. See the company's website for video demonstrations and a free trial version.

Autograph by Ten One Design, does what should have been possible years ago, namely sign your name digitally using your laptop's trackpad. The app resides in the menu bar, can be invoked by a hotkey, and you must sign with your finger – not a stylus. At this stage, it's also limited only to unibody MacBooks using the latest MacOS X version, Snow Leopard. On the plus side, it costs only $7 (free if you buy the company's Pogo Sketch app) and there's a free/trial version with no time limit that adds a watermark to the signature.
