Dropbox has become a great favorite among Mac users. But did you know that you can accomplish the same thing thru MobileMe? Just go to Finder/iDisk and add a folder. I named mine "WormHole." Then make an Alias for that folder and put it on your Desktop. Do the same thing on your other Macs. Now just use your new folder as a dropbox!

Moved. Really doesn't belong in "Switcher".

I'm not sure how that is easier than just using iDisk syncing in Finder.

Also, Dropbox syncs across multiple devices and online, so it's not quite the same thing.
