Met sharepoints maak je heel makkelijk groepen aan (zoals in OS 9) en kun je heel makkelijk eender welke map delen met andere computers. Onmisbaar in een netwerk omgeving. Je kunt het ook zelf doen door config files te editen. Dat staat beschreven in de link er boven.
Flock is een browser voor de mac waarmee je ook kunt bloggen en oa. je flickr account mee kunt beheren. Zien of het werkt. Het lijkt wel handig.

Wat ik nu al mis is dat je geen cathegorieen kunt toevoegen via Flock.

For people uncomfortable with using command line, etc., another way to delete a volume's Spotlight index is to open the Spotlight prefpane, and drag the volume to Spotlight's "Privacy" window. The index will be deleted immediately. To get Spotlight to re-index the volume, remove it from the Privacy list.
=============
You can also do this from the command line with the mdutil command. Launch Terminal and enter:
sudo mdutil -E /and the index file will be erased and rebuilt. The "/" stands for the boot volume; you can substitute the pathname of any volume here.
Substitute "-s" for "-E" to show if indexing is enabled on the volume, and "-i on" or "-i off" to enable or disable indexing. Note that mdutil must be run as root; hence the sudo.
You can also use mdimport to index a subset of files:
mdimport ~/Documentswould index your Documents folder and
mdimport -r /Library/Spotlight/AppleWorks.mdimporterwould index all AppleWorks files on your computer.
mdimport -Lwill list all installed metadata importers.
=====================
Tip voor het openen van alle muziek files in je muziekfolder als die niet geindexeerd worden:
spotlight wouldn't find any of my iTunes tracks nomatter what I did. The same for some word documents. However, they both got indexed when I openned them in the finder (not when I played the tunes in iTunes). So I opened iTunes and minimized it (important or you'll have to leave your mac alone a while) and turned off the sound (you may like it but it's a pretty odd effect). Then ran the command below
find ~/Music -name '*.mp3' -or -name '*m4p' -exec open {} \;
This opens in turns each and every track. Voilla, indexed.
May be worth a try if the mdimport command gives no mileage.

Use AppleScript and Mail to auto-start torrent downloads
Wed, Jun 14 '06 at 7:30AM PDT • Submitted by mattcomi
Can't download torrents from the office? Find yourself emailing them home so you can start them when you get there? Ever Ever wished your home Mac would just start downloading them straight away? If you answered yes to those questions, then this tip is for you.
You're going to set up an AppleScript Mail filter that picks out attached torrents, and then uses Azureus to download them. First, download the Applescript (8KB) (macosxhints mirror).
Save it somewhere sensible; I chose /Library/Scripts. Next, you'll need to add the rule to Mail. In Mail's Preferences, click Rules then Add Rule. Set up the From and Subject lines as they apply. For instance, my rule checks that From Contains my surname, and that Subject Contains download torrent. As for Perform the Following Actions, select Run AppleScript, and choose the AppleScript you just downloaded. Select OK. You're nearly there…
In Azureus, you'll need to make a slight change: In Options -> Files, you'll find Save to Default Data Directory. Ensure that this checkbox is checked. And there you have it. Enjoy! You can also find these instructions with screenshots here.
[robg adds: In the script mirror on hints, I've commented on one line you'll want to change -- the path to the default save directory. This hint is interesting not just for the stated purpose, but as an example of using AppleScript and Mail's rules to automatically handle inbound attachments.]
I just discovered a awesome feature in Tiger!
I was kidding around with the Modul8 2 Demo because i’m about to start VJing. After playing with it for a while i just went to the Quartz Composer (bundled with XCode) to see what it could do, i decided that i wanted a live video source from my camera in the composition, in QC you can do that in several forms, using masks, using portions of the screen, using transparencys, etc.
It worked well but it couldn’t be used in a live performance because there’s no intuitive and fast way to work with that program, so i closed QC and saved the .qtz in my desktop. For fun i decided to open it in Quicktime and see if it would open the live video source, but, where the video source should be was a green screen, anyway i pressed PLAY and the live vídeo appeared.
Then i thought; if i could open this in Modul8… but Modul8 doesn’t open .qtz files, maybe if i save this file in a self contained .mov it may open… and guess what!!! It does!!!
This way you can make crazy compositions with live video inserted there and use it in your shows with no need to relay only in the layer format that is given to you.
I guess this can be used in other thousand ways, but it depends on the needs you have and what you want to do. I’ve had already several great ideas to use it.
I used the example of Modul8 but this may be true for manny other apps that use QT, even Keynote i guess, it would be fun to have live video in a presentation.
Stay well and enjoy!
