f.lux and Camoflage and Check Off are my 3 "extras".
I don't really count things like the three web browsers, Transmission (torrenting), Adium (Messenger), Preview, etc. Those are fairly essential and always running.
Inb4: "Why three web browsers?"
Well, somewhere along the line, I appear to have downloaded something that rendered Firefox incompatible with MUGSI. Multiple reinstalls later, the problem isn't resolving. Opera for MUGSI, Chrome for more streamlined browsing, Firefox for the Daily Show + Colbert.
