Installing and using F# in MonoDevelop - a bit further down under "Installation Instructions" and look for the description for installing the F# MonoDevelop Plugin. Unfortunately, there are currently only templates for console projects with F# in the plugin.

F# cross-platform packages and samples - just look for the Mac Installer packages there (as of November 2010 Update) or above under "Download" (the link probably changes often when new releases come out). It's a simple Mac Installer, after which you have F# (OCaml for .Net) installed.

MonoMac - Mono. Ha ha, devil's tool and sell my soul and all that, but since I need C# for work anyway, I might as well take a look at MonoDevelop and its OSX integration - if I build small tools with it, I practice C# and can use it directly at the same time.

Datejs - An open-source JavaScript Date Library - makes a good impression, for the various format parsing and calendar-related stuff.

Kasseler Documentary and Video Festival » Reality Shock. Since I'm always looking for it, I might as well bookmark it here. (and so I have a chance to get there: this is the film through which I got to know the music of Billy's Band)

Printopia turns printers connected to a Mac into a virtual AirPrint-compatible printer. Does Apple actually realize how ridiculous the restriction to just a few HP printers with AirPrint is? They act as if printing is incredibly complicated. Why do you need third-party software if you don't want to be forced by HP to buy another disposable printer?
