KC Cufón Font Replacement
I've used sIFR and flash-based font replacement before with many headaches. This is so much nicer! They all require some leg work to set up correctly, but this one was the easiest. With proper use, it can really set a site apart from the rest.

AJAX Shoutbox
I've been using this sparingly for over a year now to accompany live video. With larger audiences, though, it was killing mysql with too many queries. However, the new release (2/10/10) has solved that. I've successfully had 250 concurrent users on with no problem at all. Nice! Now I don't have to look at finding an irc or xmpp replacement.

My client's users are a little, uh... technically challenged to say the least, and often have problems creating a simply username and password. This component is great for checking username availability, and validating e-mails and passwords. I purchased the $10 pro version for reCaptcha and was surprised that the 'powered by' was still there. I e-mailed support, and within minutes I had a non-powered by version. Excellent support and service! Thank you.

OSE Membership™
Yes, finally a component that does web site memberships easily. I've used MamboCharge (yes, I've been around a while), nBill and AEC in the past for membership sites, but never again. OSE has gotten it right and back it with support that goes above and beyond. I had one minor problem with a beta version and Helix came through with prompt, professional, courteous support like I've never seen from any other development group. Best of all, by using VirtueMart, I can offer subscriptions seamlessly with physical products. I LOVE this component!

Exposé bridge
This component is awesome, stylish, very functional and easy to modify. It does have a few bugs, which is normal for a beta version, but they can be worked around by using the Image Manager. I can't wait to see future developments!
