PSP Content Manager is one the best computer applications you can have on hand to use with your PSP. It basically is a complete organizer for your PSP. It can change the order of anything including homebrew, save data, photos, isos, rss, and bookmarks. This is particularly useful when your homebrew list is getting long and you want to order them in a certain way so you do not have to always go scrolling or searching for certain ones.
One thing to note is that when you download this the homebrew folder may not be setup for the custom firmware that you are on. It will always recognize the GAME folder, but if for instance you want to change the firmware specific folder like GAME380 you have to change it manually.
Follow the steps below:
1. Connect your PSP to your PC.
2. Open PSP Content Manager
3. Go to the Custom Firmware tab.
4. Right click on any of the homebrews
5. Left click on Custom Firmware Setting
6. Change the name and folder accordingly
Now the manager can work with any firmware and can be updated as such. This is definitely a must have application, so waste no time in getting it and start organizing!

PSP Brew v0.91
One of the most useful computer applications that is used in conjunction with the PSP is PSP Brew. It is a very useful tool to install, manage and edit the homebrew apps on the PSP and it allows you to edit the icon, background, and the sound of any eboots. It also allows you to convert any older eboots into the 1.0 format (1 folder) instead of the 1.50 format (2 folders - XX & XX%). It is invaluable as an eboot editor alone and will allow you to customize any homebrew you have on your PSP even further. Go ahead, give that Sega Genesis emulator some nice Sonic music and a custom Genesis background, you'll love it!

Orbid, created by Slasher from Team Duck, is reminiscent of the game flOw, with players taking on the role of a a small orb struggling to survive.

Slasher added that the multiplayer mode is still in its early beta stage. As such, the coder cautioned that it may not always work. If you are interested, be sure to read first the documentation that comes with Orbid v2 to know about its controls and more.

Rythm Engine: Rythm Box Mod V2
This here is another great homebrew that mixes a rhythm based game with a shooter. It's a "rhythm shooter" so to speak. The author, Brick, initially started out Rythm Engine: Rythm Box Mod as a DDR clone, but eventually steered away from a conventional key-beat instruction concept and introduced "wall-beat" instructions. You bounce your cube off the flashing walls while keeping in sync with the beat, while also have to deal "shoot" the enemies out to get you. The game comes packed with different degrees of difficulty with enemies, AI, and power-ups.
The game might be a little difficult to play at first, but keep at it and you'll be a pro "rhythm shooter" soon enough.

CTorrent PSP
This one is for all you torrent freaks out there. Danzel, created a port of CTorrent for the PSP. For those of you who don’t know what CTorrent is, it’s a torrent client written in C++ and intended to run on Unix systems.
The functions should work well but Danzel notes that some bugs might be due to the PSP’s limitation. The features supported are fairly minimal (No protocol encryption, https support, peer exchange, etc), so this is good to note if you plan on using it. The PSP networking stack really isn't designed for running torrents, so Danzel has limited peers to 20 to attempt to alleviate this, but it can still cause problems sometimes.
This has been tested and works fine. As mentioned due to the limitation of the PSP it isn't recommended to download any large files.
