Textpander

Textpander makes typing easier by “expanding” your “text”. You can set abbreviations for longer phrases that you type often and let Textpander take away the tediousness. For example, you can set it up so typing “mysig” expands into “Sincerely, John Doe.” You can also set abbreviations for the current date and time. Great for anyone that types common phrases often, like responding to a lot of emails.

It installs as a System Preference Pane so it works with every application.

Textpander is no longer freeware. Shame, shame.
