Dropbox kennen we allemaal. Het zorgt ervoor dat een zogenaamde ‘Dropboxmap’ automatisch geback-upt wordt naar het internet of, beter gezegd, de ‘cloud’. Installeer je Dropbox op 2 computers, dan wordt die map altijd tussen deze computers gesynchroniseerd. Ideaal!

Echter, de kans is natuurlijk levendig aanwezig dat je meer mappen en documenten hebt naast deze Dropboxmap. Mappen en documenten die je ook graag zou synchroniseren tussen werk- en thuiscomputer. Dat kan! Het vernuftige appje MacDropAny laat je iedere map op je Mac synchroniseren via Dropbox.

MacDropAny werkt kinderlijk eenvoudig. Zodra je het opent vraagt het welke map je graag zou willen synchroniseren via Dropbox. Kies een willekeurige map op je Mac. Vervolgens moet je aangeven waar binnen je Dropboxmap je deze zou willen plaatsen. Tot slot kun je een naam geven aan de map op Dropbox.

Stap 2: kies een locatie waar je de map binnen Dropbox wilt plaatsen

Stap 3: geef de map een naam

Moelijker is het niet. Op deze manier kun je al je belangrijk documenten en mappen backuppen op Dropbox zonder dat ze per sé binnen de officiële Dropboxmap hoeven te staan.

Sometimes, trying out beta version of an app can lead to a sore experience that ultimately changes your perception of the app even before developers roll out the final build for public consumption. Something similar happened to me when I installed the first beta of Sparrow Mail around nine months ago. Sparrow, back then, was a Gmail-only client that had taken a leaf out of Tweetie’s book. I abandoned the app after a few betas as the design seemed too minimal & lacking important functionality, marking it as another wannabe mail client for the Mac. I wish I had stayed on to experience the revolution that Sparrow Mail has undergone since its beta days to emerge as one of the best mail clients that we have on the Mac App Store today.

Sparrow has come a long way since its beta days and now supports all IMAP accounts including Gmail, MobileMe, Yahoo and custom IMAP. Sparrow features a three-column layout with accounts occupying the narrow left column, your list of emails in the middle column and mail content filling up the last one. Sparrow retains the minimal ‘Tweetie look’ by having a collapsible third column. The minimal look generated a lot of buzz during the beta days and is still a strong selling point of the app. Moreover, it switches between multiple accounts the same way, but that’s pretty much all the inspiration it takes from Tweetie.

CloudApp allows you to share images, links, music, videos and files. Here is how it works: choose a file, drag it to the menubar and let us take care of the rest. We provide you with a short link automatically copied to your clipboard that you can use to share your upload with co-workers and friends.

Drag and drop files directly from Finder, define a hotkey to trigger an upload of a file or screenshot and print to CloudApp from any application on your Mac.
