Dropbox - あんたばか？
FastScripts - Used to execute a few AppleScripts to skip songs in Last.fm, open current Safari tab in Chrome (that rare occasion I need Flash), turn on my SOCKS proxy, etc.
f.lux - So I’m more mentally prepared to fall to sleep when I shut off the computer at night.
Sound - So I can quickly swap output between my headphones and speakers. Wish I knew about the alt-click options ages ago!
Battery - Where I can watch my 2007 MacBook Pro’s now pitiful 2-3 hour battery life drain away.
AirPort - My router likes to play mindgames with me so it helps to keep this in the menubar.

QuickCal – Allows me to add appointments to iCal in a pop up window using natural language.
– I should remove this but my ego and fear of missing out won’t allow it. ;-)
Dropbox – This should be built in.
FastScripts – Allows me to execute a few Applescripts I have come to rely on with keyboard commands.
DisplayPad – Lets me use my iPad as a second display over WiFi (Seems like magic. Likely is.)
The rest are built in stuff. Sync, Bluetooth, Airport, Battery, Clock, Spotlight.

Droplr — for shortening links and mostly for sharing quick screen grabs.
Dropbox — saves my life.
TextExpander — saves my fingers.
FastScripts — for quickly executing Applescripts.
Bluetooth — I like to keep in the bar so I know if I am connected to anything.
Battery — Icon only because all I need to know is that a red color in my menubar means I need to find power.
Keychain Access — Allows me to lock my screen when I walk away from my Mac, but I need to keep it ‘awake’.
WiFi — Yep.
Clock — I keep it on military with no weekdays so that I don’t waste too much space.
Spotlight — I would ideally like to rid this, but leave Spotlight active.
