I see most of the menu bars are quite short, so I’ve decided to submit mine:
xScope - To measure stuff on the screen when designing.
BetterTouchTool - The #1 utility if you own Magic Mouse / Magic Trackpad or MacBook.
Adium - #1 Mac Chat software. Allows me to stay in touch with my team via .
OmniFocus - The best GTD Mac software, I use it to keep my to dos and keep them synced between devices.
Pomodoro - Best Pomodoro Technique timer to stay productive by splitting task into chunks.
Emcee - Answers the “What’s playing?” question (Bit crazy that it’s $3 now, I got it for free before the Mac App Store).
Radium - Sometimes I just want to listen to something without bothering too much.
- To watch my stuff on iPad in bed.
Droplr - To quickly share screenshots with my team and other people in Adium.
Blast - Allows me to quickly access files and folders just changed.
Dropbox - Everybody knows Dropbox, right? Sync files between computers, devices and share with people.
Launch it! - Allows me to launch apps with a single hotkey. A very missing feature in Mac OS X.
Little Snitch - Firewall.
Size Up - To control windows from the keyboard. I am proud to say that I helped to develop it.
Evernote - Notebook synched between devices.
iStat Menus - RAM, CPU Temp, Fan Speed and CPU Load.
Time Machine, Bluetooth, Airport, Volume, Language - Built-in Mac OS X tools.
iStat Menus - Again this time to replace the flawed Mac OS X clock, this one gives me calendar access when I click it, not to mention a nicer menubar layout.
Fast Users Switching - Built-in.
Also I have KeyRemap4MacBook running to remap some buttons on the keyboard. Actually I switch Keyboard Layouts using single left/right shift presses and remap cmd-space to cmd-shift-space to get rid of that awful Snow Leopard language swtich. The icon for KeyMap is removed from the menubar because it has a nice Preference Pane built-in.
Phew. That’s about it.

CoverSutra - iTunes controller, I use it for the keyboard controls

Default Folder X - remembers your recent & favorite folders in Open/Save dialog windows (must-have Mac utility!)
TextExpander - expand snippets of text based on short text triggers, and much more (another must-have Mac utility)

ClipMenu - excellent clipboard history manager
Pantone Huey - monitor calibration utility, used with the hardware calibrator
Pastebot server - copy/paste from Mac to iOS utility

OS X ites: Bluetooth, Airport, iChat, iSync, Script Editor, Keychains, Sounds, Accounts, and finally custom time/date via iStat Menus.
Yeah, I have way too much crap up there, I know. But I’m used to it now.

Echofon: My choice of Twitter client these days. It’s not as pretty as the other options, but it has streaming API and syncs across the iOS counterparts. And I was growing increasingly annoyed of Twitter for iPhone with the #dickbar.
Dropbox: The first app I install on any Mac (including the ones I help set up for my friends). I’m a pro user with the 50GB space plan.
: With 3 iOS devices in the house, it’s great to just relax in any corner of the house and stream my favorite movies or TV shows.
(Blurred out as it’s still in beta and I can’t talk about it yet.)
Notificant: I may sound biased, but this has practically replaced all other reminder apps for me. I have the beta of the iPhone app installed on my iPhone 4, so my workflow revolves around notifications via Notificant now.
Cloud App: I just prefer it over Droplr, though I tend to also use idzr.org and dznr.org at times.
Flow app: Trying this out, so it’s new up there.
Caffeine: Great when you want to leave the screen on.
iStat Menus: The time and the xx% next to it are modules of iStat Menus. A click on the time shows me a list of world clocks and a click on the CPU percentage lists this: http://pre.sh/5Uc4
Bluetooth: Like Ben (Brooks), I like knowing what I’m currently connected to and this also gives me easy access when the Magic Mouse runs out of battery.
Wi-fi: For obvious reasons
Sound: I always plan to remove it from up there, but never actually get to doing it.
Battery: My battery’s status says “Service battery” and I’m almost about to purchase a new iMac, so I don’t want to spend $250 on a new battery. So this helps me keep an eye when the AC Power goes off.
