Lifehacker is such a bunk site. I used to love it, when I didn't realize that a good 90% of their articles are garbage. It's a shame. VLC is incredibly overhyped: everybody that doesn't use iTunes or WinAmp seems to use it. Ubiquity doesn't do much yet, but people are talking about it a lot because it's Aza Raskin. Songbird deserves no talk whatsoever until it has a featureset that makes it noticably better than iTunes on OS X, WinAmp on Windows, or Amarok on Linux, but it gets talk because it's Mozilla and Mozilla products are always worth talking about unless it's Sunbird. Picasa's Google and gets advertised all over the place. OpenOffice is hyped too much considering Bean and Abiword trounce its word processor. Is Dropbox underhyped? Everybody seems to love it, and I'd guess it's growing pretty fast.
