It doesn’t matter how you say “Houdah,” the developer of this series of utilities for Mac OS X just wants you remember it. In my experience, HoudahSpot makes for an amazing (power user’s) extension to the already-powerful Spotlight.

HoudahSpot is Houdah Software’s bestselling file search tool for the Mac. Unleash the full power of Spotlight to find, manage and clean up your files.

• Fast – The search starts only at your command.
• Precise – Pinpoint files using a myriad of criteria.
• Detailed – Show any number of columns.
• Customizable – Set your preferred criteria, columns and sort order.
• BlitzSearch – The convenience of Spotlight, the power of HoudahSpot.

HoudaGeo adds another dimension to your photos, to boot. With HoudahGeo you may “pin” photos to locations where they were taken. Just like an expensive GPS camera, HoudahGeo may store latitude, longitude and altitude information right within the image file – invisibly with no loss of quality. HoudahGeo offers you many ways of geocoding your favorite photos:

• Automatic – Matches photos to GPS track logs and waypoints.
• Using a Google Earth – Point to the desired location.
• Using a map – Pick locations using the built-in map.
• Precision – Attach photos to GPS waypoints.
• Manual – Enter coordinates found on Google Earth, Wikipedia and more!

Remember, before buying this or any other software, be sure to check with me. I may just have a coupon you can use.
