I always end up doing some level of post processing on my keepers. Since I use a P&S I'm only able to get so close to smaller objects, so I tend to crop a lot. Once in a while I'll play with the brightness, saturation, gamma and color balance. But not normally. My camera has pretty good color and etc.
Once in a rare while I'll apply a Photoshop plug-in. But I normally only do that when I want a B&W image. Basic B&W conversion just doesn't do anything for me.
It always amazes me though that most of my keepers don't require any significant modification though.
You'll note I don't really count resizing as a post process. Resizing is only a necessary evil brought on by the limited bandwidth of the internet and monitor sizes.
