[Request] .Mac syncing
Posted: Mon Nov 21, 2005 2:17 am
I recently became a .Mac member and I find it rather awesome. Despite the fact that I'm an experienced Mac user, .Mac makes it many times easier (and better looking) to publish iCal calendars, photos, etc. than using my own server that I set up with WebDAV and all. Anyway, I think my favorite feature is .Mac syncing. I have two desktops in two far-away places, and I love how I can add bookmarks or people to Address Book and have the changes reflected in both locations. This isn't limited to Apple applications; other programs like Transmit allow you to sync settings across computers.
I use Adium often in both locations, and I always keep chat logs of conversations. Up until now, I've always merged the logs manually, but I think tying into .Mac and Sync Services would be an awesome new Adium feature. I envision two options: sync accounts and/or sync logs.
Plus, if any Adium users sign up for .Mac through Adium, the project gets rewarded with the .Mac Affiliate Program.
Here are links to documentation about .Mac integration:
