Magic Mail Folder is one of the fastest way to send emails. It turns any folder on your desktop into an email-sending-box. You just have to give your freshly created folder(s) the name of an email address (like myFriend@hotmail.com) and it will be recognized.

Simply drag files in it and they will be sent.

SpiderOak is a multi-platform secure online backup, storage, access, and sharing solution engineered for the consumer and small businesses.

Running natively on Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux, SpiderOak allows users to create a central storage repository where they can access data from all their SpiderOak devices within the application, or via web login at SpiderOak.com.

Using an automated approach, SpiderOak immediately backs up and stores any additions, edits, or changes to the back up set. Historical versions of any document can be identified and downloaded by timestamp.

Any folders within a user’s SpiderOak account can be selected for sharing in a password protected setting called a ‘ShareRoom’, and any changes or additions to the shared folders are automatically seen by visitors to the ShareRoom.

Capabilities at a glance:

• True privacy via comprehensive “zero knowledge” encryption. Not even the names of your files or folders are revealed.
• Multi computer, real time: access all files from other machines
• Retains complete historical content of every folder and file
• Easily share folders from any device in ShareRooms w/ RSS feeds
• Massive data de-duplication: extremely space efficient versioning and storage
• Optional command line interface: batch mode, scheduled/scripted operation
• Quality by design: near 100% automated test coverage
• Properly handles OS X resource forks
• ACID compliant, fault tolerant structure eliminates worry of corrupted backups

Permanent Eraser… When you normally delete your files in Mac OS X, the operating system is only forgetting where those particular files are placed, while the data still physically remains on the drive. Beginning with Mac OS 10.3, Apple enhanced its security by introducing the Secure Empty Trash feature, which follows the U.S. DoD pattern of overwriting data seven times.

Permanent Eraser provides an even stronger level of security by implementing the Gutmann Method. This utility overwrites your data thirty-five times, scrambles the original file name, and truncates the file size to nothing before Permanent Eraser finally unlinks it from the system. Once your data has been erased, it can no longer be read through traditional means.

Permanent Eraser is free of charge, and the source code is also provided for educational purposes.

• Implements the Gutmann Method via srm to remove files
• Erases the files in your Trash
• Erases CD-RWs and DVD-RWs
• Erases files dropped on the application icon
• Provides a warning dialog before files are erased (Press the Option key to bypass this warning).
• Universal Binary
• Localized for English, German, French, Dutch, Italian, Swedish, and Traditional Chinese
• Source code is available

PlaneShift… The objective of the PlaneShift Team is to create a virtual fantasy world in which a player can start as a peasant in search of fame and become a hero. We will focus our efforts in the reproduction of a real world with politics, economy and many non-player-characters controlled by the server that will bring to life our world even without players connected!

We want to give Free access to everyone, without the need to either purchase the game or pay a monthly fee. Servers and bandwidth will be donated by sponsors.

Our virtual world is persistent, and this means you can connect to it at every hour of day or night and you will always find players and npcs wandering our realms. You will be able to disconnect and reconnect again, the server saves the actual status of your character including his possessions.

You will use a client program to interact with our world, that enables you to have a 3D view of the surroundings.
