Adium is a native multi-protocol instant messenger. To be honest, Adium is the best IM client for a platform that doesn't have very good IM clients. Sadly, the worst part of switching to the Mac was letting go of Microsoft Live Messenger. Microsoft does have a messenger for Mac, but it is no good. Adium was, and still is, the best alternative on Mac.

Quitting Time plays a factory whistle sound at a specified time of day. The developer's intention was for this application to be used to signal the end of a workday, but it can be used as a general-purpose alarm for a specific time. However, the alarm sound cannot be changed from the default without delving into the package contents.
