Usually, I restart my Macbook once in 7 days. And since I use it for my activity as a computer programmer, I often got my Macbook has temperature at 176°F (or 80°C). And I worried about my proccessor heat and all components inside my Macbook. And I always want to monitor them.
And I found a great tool to monitor them.
The tool calls iStat menus and it's free!
To install it, just download it first then double click the downloaded file and follow the instruction (take about 4-5 steps) and iStat will located on menubar/menulet. You can configure it in Mac OS Preferences menu.
iStat can monitors these items :

4 display modes, page ins/outs and swap usage display.

Bluetooth.
