I used to switch windows using win+1..9 on windows 7. Now switching to mac, i wonder if is there any equivalent feature in snow leopard? Or maybe there exist some third-party application support that?

There are quite a few commands which let you do this in Mac OS X:
Cmd+Tab for switching applications
Cmd+` for switching windows within applications
F3/F9 for Exposé (shows all windows in a graphical way, on trackpads you can do a 4-finger swipe down)
F10 for showing windows of a specific application in Exposé
F11 for showing desktop and shoving all other windows to the side, on a trackpad its 4 finger swipe up
There is also Spaces which is like having multiple desktops, where you can switch to and fro. You can enable it in the

prefrence pane in System Preferences and suit the keyboard shortcuts to you liking
