Witch is a nice tool for keyboard shortcut users. It gives you the ability to switch to a window that is currently hidden without using your mouse.

Witch lets you access all of your windows by pressing a shortcut and choosing from a clearly arranged list of window titles.

  • Choose the sorting order of Witch's windows list (application activity, window acticvity, etc.)
  • Directly access minimized windows without using your mouse
  • Close minimized windows without bringing them to the front first
  • Zoom, minimize/deminimize and close windows on the fly

Elgato Video Capture

I was planning to buy Elgato Video Capture:

Transfer video from a VCR or any other analog video source to your Mac in a format that is ready for iTunes, an iPod or iPhone, YouTube, and iMovie.

Transfer video to your Mac from a VCR, DVR, camcorder, or any other analog video device as an iTunes-ready H.264 or MPEG-4 file. Elgato Video Capture’s easy-to-use software assists you through every step, from connecting an analog video source to recording the video on your Mac and choosing how you will watch and share it.

There is no easier way to transfer home video to your Mac to play in QuickTime, to sync with an iPod, iPhone or Apple TV, to edit in iMovie, or to upload to YouTube.

Solid package according to Mac|Life, but unfortunately the software seems to bee not that good.
