Some tiny personal programs I've written
I can relate to the document scanning issue. In my case, I digitize all documents I get on paper. For this, I've written this wrapper: https://github.com/dbrgn/pydigitize
It does the following steps:
- Scan a document with any scanner that supports SANE (ADF supported)
- Straightening and cleaning of scanned documents
- Run OCR on PDF so that it becomes searchable
- Generate PDF/A file for archival
- Add keywords to the PDF file
I've probably saved many hours with this script, even when taking into account the time it took me to write it.
Tiny projects don't always save time, but they sure are gratifying when they work as intended!

Some tiny personal programs I've written
I wrote a very simple script to automatically download desktop wallpapers from http://simpledesktops.com/. I then cron'd it to place wallpapers in a folder, and Mac OS automatically rotates through the wallpapers randomly every hour. I love the idea of small, simple projects that make your life better.
