Yeah I don't do much scripting but I had a feeling what I did was scalable. With only about 30 apps, none affected by the always update bug, my script is good enough for me and popping the text file on the desktop lets me know in the morning right away what I need to update. I have Ketarin run automatically before shutdown at night while I am away from the computer along with jkdefrag, ccleaner, and JungleDisk backup to my Amazon S3 space.
