If you don't own apple products (iPhone, iPad, an Apple computer), this list will be pretty much useless to you unless you haven't heard of dropbox.

Just installed CardStar on my Droid X. Can finally dump the stupid little tags off my keychain (if It works). My device is most certainly not an Apple product.

Either I'm doing something wrong or barcode scanners and OLED screens don't get along. Can't get anything to scan the screen of my Nexus One.

Tried my Droid X at shoprite and it did not scan. Too bad. WOuld have been nice to eliminate those tags.

Apple might have the largest share on HN - but it's certainly not a majority over Win + Linux.

It would be better to see actual OSes used by visitor. Maybe one of the maintainers could provide this data.

That poll's about a year and a half old - I wonder if it's changed much since then?

http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1511643 this was more recent (6 months). It included emacs which brought "Other" up a bit.

Linux: Went from 36.4% to 39.3%

OSX: Went from 38.1% to 31.4%

Windows: Went from 21.9% to 23.4%

Other: Went from 3.6% to 5.9%

While I think the "look at the apps we're not using" is a useful note, I don't think curiosity about these sorts of things is a matter of inadequate people going, "if only I used their tools..."

I just assume that those with more experience or prominence might have a better line on some useful tools I haven't come across or tried. Like Picasso said, "When artists get together they talk about where you can buy cheap turpentine."

Of that list, I'm pretty impressed with (and just bought) Divvy - it elegantly improves window resizing/moving options for Mac users.

Divvy also offers a Windows version

Wish 1password worked with Chrome. Looks handy.

Ask and ye shall receive: http://help.agile.ws/1Password3/google_chrome_logins_bookmar...

Better yet: update to 1password 3.5 and get complete support through an extension.

Fantastic. Thanks.

I've been using 1password with chrome for a few weeks. Works great.
