Basically bittorrent files are very small, and when you open one the program goes out and searches among the internet for other people who have the file open, and you download and upload and receive the file (mp3, video, whatever) that way. It's just another P2P application.

suprnova.org used to be the standard for bittorrent files, but I think it has been down now for a few weeks or so. Tomato torrent is just a program that lets you manage your bittorrent downloads and uploads...sort of like a download manager on your browser.

A google search for "bittorrent os x" can provide you with download links, etc.

Dan, ive noticed that "quality" fluctuation on limewire recently and also the fact that any search will now bring up alot of pretty unrelated stuff. For example searching "isaac hayes ikes rap" the other day gave me hundreds of results for things with just "rap" or "ike" in the title as well as alot of seemingly automatically generated things called "isaac_hayes_ikes_rap" at about 100k each - ads? spam?

LaunchBar allowed me to empty my dock. It is top.

Quicksilver is OK if you demand a no-cash alternative.

Jonathan have you found this yet? I don't have an iPod but I remember downloading something in order to get stuff from a friend's Pod onto my Mac.. but I can't remember what it was called!! I had to find a serial # in order to get it to move more than one song at a time tho.

FYI... this is a nice program for getting mp3s off your iPod. It's shareware for your first 10 uses and $15 after that.

iPod access - http://www.drewfindley.com/findleydesigns/ipodaccess/

I had to use this to fix my parents' iPods - they had their music spread across six computers between them, Mac and PC. Worth paying the shareware price instead of moving a few at a time.

I know what you're thinking, and yes it can do folders full of aliases, in case you really need to scratch that "virtual mix tape" itch. Lately I've just been throwing random folders in there, full of Word documents and applications, just to see if it can find any sound to play. It doesn't like it when I do that.

MenuCalendarClock is an iCal compatible menu calendar and a configurable menu clock. Besides an elegant and streamlined look, it offers many compelling features to make it the ultimate calendaring utility for the Mac.


Even the non paid version is handy and fun. The ability to sync addressbook birthdays to calendar rules since one of my social networking site lets me export all my friends.

does anyone know any decent free/cheap budgeting software for my mac? or should i just set something up in the openoffice excel thingy?

need to figure out where my money's going, so i can save some. could do it with a pencil, but it seems like it might be more fun to actually do it on my computer.

Anyone know of a utility that'll resize batches of images? Whenever I want to post or send photos, I've gotta shrink 'em and take 'em down to 72 dpi. Times like these, I wish I could just drag-and-drop them onto some handy little app on my desktop.
