In my case, as I am the only user of this Mac, I just mainly keep
third-party applications in my ~/Applications folder. I mainly
reserve the /Applications folder for applications from Apple, or a
few others I'm afraid to mess with (like Adobe applications and
Microsoft Office) and a few Utilities that seem to want to be at the
top level. I definitely keep all Apple applications in
/Applications, so they get updated by Software Update. Software
Update won't look in the ~/Applications folder.
