There are some applications without which you can’t even use your computer productively. Have you ever thought to list them down? Here is my attempt to give ‘em enough credits.
- Firefox - My Cloud Operating System
- Thunderbird - This bird keeping a watch on my mails, Thank You!
- Terminal - shell is power, brings out the geek in you!
- Yakuake - Slides down and shows on your screen, then hides itself completely
- Amarok - Windows and Mac users, start Envying
- Geany - The simplest,lightweight and zero-bloat IDE
- VLC Media Player - The King of Video Players
- Pidgin - So many IM accounts, one central place to manage. Sweet!
- FileZilla Client - Who says CuteFTP is the best FTP Client? It sucks!
- XChat - IRC is still revelant you morons, you can’t avoid getting hooked to it!
- Twhirl / Twitterfox - Is there a life without Twitter?
Just hope that I didn’t miss anything. To err is human!

VLC might be the King, but m-player surely is the Prince of Video Players. Try it!
Yeah! I have heard a lot about MPlayer. I used it long back, but never tried to discover the real power behind it. Will surely give it a shot again.
By the way, I heard that it can play tracks even via command line. This is even more awesome!
mplayer can play videos on command line, though I think X has to be up for this. Smplayer is quite possibly the best front end to mplayer, IMO
Videos from command line!!
I checked the site of Smplayer, one of the most appealing feature is “it remembers the settings of all files you play. So you start to watch a movie but you have to leave… don’t worry, when you open that movie again it will resume at the same point you left it” — Quoting from their site
