After 20+ years of application development, and systems administration. I have come you really like a few tools. (This list is NOT influenced by the fact I work for Teamstudio)
Here are my favorites in no particular order
Teamstudio, CIAO, Analyzer, Delta, Design Manger, and Snapper cool development tools.
Notespeek A window into the internals of you notes applications
Antrid change or reset the repid on a note application
MWsnap freeware screen capture tool
Deskpins A cool freeware tool that I first heard about from Andrew Pollack that allows you to keep a window on top of all others. Great for copy and paste type tasks
MS Visio I use this for creating notes Network Diagrams using my custom Visio stencils
Notrix The coolest data integrator for notes. My main reason is that you can use the windows scheduler to schedule jobs, and not have to rely on Domino to do it,
Dropbox synchronizing files between computers as well as hosting the files for this blog.
There are many more that come to mind but these I use or rely on the most.
What do you use and/or like?

error message of the day
OK here is a good one. A colleague of mine (John Kingsley) tried to open a document in His Notes 8.02 client and got this message.
Subsequently he got the message for every doc he tried to open. Restarting notes fixed it. (As it always does!)

If we could set the agent's server to run on with a failover option
We all know (or I hope we do) that in lotusscript you can open a db with failover.
So if you are clustering and on node goes down, your code will still execute. A very important option IMHO.
Agents are a key part of applications running on servers. Same scenario one node goes down and oops my agents do not run. Bummer. I know someone wrote Lotusscript code to have agents work in this scenario, but what about formula agents? Or what if I have 500 agents on the server and want this functionality. EWWWWW.
I think that we should be able to set agents server to run on with failover. This would be a simple and elegant solution and aid in Disaster recovery planning.
I am going to post this in the partner forum as a wish list, but let me hear your thoughts
