- Yummy FTP 1.7: Now Leopard flavored
Filed under: Software, Internet Tools, Leopard
Although there are lots of good FTP options out there for the Mac, my personal favorite is Yummy FTP. It's lightweight, feature rich, FAST (it's why I stopped using anything else) and now it's Leopard Compatible. Version 1.7, which was released on November 20, includes the following updates (per the Yummy Software web site):
- Mac OS X 10.5 ready
- QuickLook Integration
- Leopard UI update
- New icons
- Finder-like rename
- Bookmark color labels
- Bug Fixes
Yummy FTP is $25 for a single-user license, but you can try it out for free for 30 days.Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: Software
For finding updates to all your installed applications, you can go with an annual subscription to VersionTracker Pro or MacUpdate Desktop, or try the free alternative: metaquark's in-development AppFresh (first reviewed here in March). With tight integration to the iusethis application info repository, AppFresh does a spot-on job finding updates to mainstream and indie apps alike, and it's getting better with each release.
Earlier in November, the first preview release with full Leopard compatibility popped up on metaquark's site. I've been using it for a couple of weeks and it works like a charm -- downloading and optionally installing updates found via iusethis' appcasts or Sparkle updates without fuss or complication. If you're a serious update maven, you probably already have one of the pro apps, but if not you ought to check out AppFresh.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: Software, Leopard
In honor of the holiday weekend, when many of us overate ourselves into food comas, I'm coining a word to describe a class of shareware apps: "lunchware," those programs inexpensive enough that you could buy them for what you might otherwise spend on lunch. If it's less than $12, it's lunchware, so Cocoamug's new Leopard dock customization tool Palette meets the standard (€6.90, or about $10.20). For less than the cost of a burger and a beer (at least by NYC prices) you can get several Leopard interface tweak tools in one little app.
For those who have followed Mat's previous posts on drawer-izing the Dock and creating your own custom drawer icons, Palette lets you quickly swap your own drawer icons in for your stacks (or downloaded icons from a pro) without any messing about. You can also turn dock transparency or 3D effects off, change your Dock or menubar colors, and turn off the dreaded menubar transparency. The unregistered version leaves a little palette micro-icon on your drawers to remind you to register.

http://www.tuaw.com/2007/11/25/palette-lunchware-app-customizes-leopard-dock/#comments - Holiday break, no talkcast this week
Filed under: Podcasting
Well, as you might have guessed, we're all turkey'ed out here at TUAW headquarters (located in scenic Hendersonville, SC) and as a result there won't be a talkcast this week -- sorry! Join us next Sunday night (12/2) at our normal 10pm ET timeslot.
Meanwhile, we're surveying the team here for favorite Mac and iPod/iPhone podcasts, and we've got a short list going; if you have must-listen or must-watch Mac podcasts, let us know so we can check them out. Also, a quick plug for our own Christina Warren in her costarring role on the Squadcast, the video podcast from Download Squad -- highly entertaining.
Our picks for podcasts + those suggested by your comments:
- Shawn King's Your Mac Life, inexplicably left off the original list. If Adam Curry is the Podfather, then Shawn is certainly some sort of capo.
- Mac Attack!
- the Maccast
- Typical Mac User Podcast (TMUP) -- Victor and I are trying to schedule a cohosted show for early December, more on that as it develops.
- Talk Show -- Gruber and Benjamin are the Harold and Kumar of podcasting.
- Retro Mac Cast, featuring vintage Mac discussion.
- MacBreak Weekly -- Leo Laporte's star-studded show, with occasional special guests.
- MacBreak Tech, the geekier side.
- Mac OS Ken, suggested by Carlos. Mac news with attitude -- sounds like our kind of show.
- Mac Geek Gab -- John & Dave lean more technical than most shows.
- MacDevNet -- both Late Night Cocoa and the Mac Dev Roundtable are great for developers and would-be developers.
- Apple Phone Show -- MacBreak's Scott Bourne on the iPhone.
- ScreenCastsOnline -- though there's a paid version that's well worth it, the free instructional screencasts are also a treat.
