Wow, I didn't even have to complain! Thanks! I use (and am blown away by) lots of software, some on the web, some not, some free, some not. The one that has blown me away continuously for the last decade are these two apps (they are part of a suite). If I had said "photoshop and illustrator" it wouldn't have been controversial. But being able to take a pile of word documents, build an entirely custom xml converter, entity extractor and semantic relation engine, in one tool (XEE), without writing a single line of code, then take that XML and analyze it in ways that would normally take at least a dozen disparate apps, but in one environment (Starlight), has been absolutely mindblowing. These two apps understand what XML is supposed to be about, use it as intended (for data interchange) and use it like nothing else I've ever seen. Photoshop is "cool" and illustrator is "useful" but neither one has kept me up at night.
