Here are a few of the tools I find indispensable on a day to day basis.

Editor - Sublime Text 2

Two features here make it my #1 choice. The first is the ability to have multiple text insertion points. It's hard to explain, but just go watch the little video on their website. It saves a lot of tedius typing.

The second is the best file-find&open mechanism I've seen. When your developing a django site, you end up with a lot of similarly named files (views.py, urls.py, etc.) Sublime is the only editor I've found that lets me easily find the right one. A simple cmd-P to open the text box. Then a few letters of the app, a few letters of the filename, and it's usually got it. Example:

cmd-p pro vie ENTER

That would open up apps/projects/views.py in the current project I'm working on.

SQL Browser - Sequel Pro

The best SQL tool I've found.

Bonus points: It can connect to a remote server over SSH and tunnel the mysql connection over that, so you don't have to expose your DB to the internet for any reason.

Music - Spotify

How can you code without some music? Spotify has replaced the iTunes & Pandora that I used to use.

Screenshots - Skitch

The ability to quickly take, annotate, and share screenshots makes my life a lot easier.

Password management - 1Password

1Password lets me have a unique, strong password for every site that I sign up for.

Browser - Google Chrome

The developer tools in Chrome are the best I've seen. Superior to FireBug, and very similar to Safari's tools. (If you're debugging in IE, you're doing it wrong.)

One of the better features is the ability to use Javascript code maps so you can go from your minified, concatenated, js files all the way back to the source coffeescript and debug comfortably.

Communication - GMail / GChat, Skype & Adium

It felt weird not to include these since I spend so much time in them.
