    So, if you're using Pidgin or Digsby, you get a new Buddy List name ... how does that help you define which contacts you want to send multiple messages to? Does clicking this new name allow you to define who you want to send the message to?

    @rafib: Haha, uhh, actually, pros use Foobar2000. ;)

    Sweet! I hope to take it for a spin in a nice, safe Virtualbox-ed environment. ;)

    Hmm, interesting - I'll have to try this out. It'll take a lot for me to switch from Picasa, but you never know...

    Ohhh yeaaaahhh Pandora!

    MAN, this puts a pretty big bite into services like Spanning Sync (which are paid).

    I tried this a while back and while it was cool, I found myself (like the people above) that it was better to use Windows Explorer. There are too many crazy registry hacks to get Windows to use new file managers (like NexusFile) in every situation.

    @Exilm: I agree - I like the idea of file automation, but that only works if you're actively looking at all the files you get.

    @mhalbrook: Amen!! Belvedere does the job well (and you don't need two separate programs to create the functionality shown).

    @boldIT: There is a paid program called Hazel that does folder/file actions.

    Woo! Now I supposed I need to figure out PeerGuardian for Mac. ;)

    @Bakari: So, on Windows, the File Modified time tends to refer to the last time the "owner" of the file messed with it, while the Created Time refers to the exact time I downloaded it. With Belvedere, it's easy to say "Okay, if the created time is older than 3 days, delete it."

    @Bakari: I have Hazel to clean out my Downloads folder (say, anything older than 3 day), but right now, it deletes anything I download at all.

    This is a little brown nosing action, but I say Belvedere all the way.

    @jupiterthunder: I actually couldn't find a link for Findxer, so maybe math0ne can help with that. Finder Bar is here.

    I'm a big fan of using the traditional Windows Explorer, but with the following things added:

    @Hoser01: Me too! UGHH, I hate cluttered context menus.

    WOW - this site must be getting slammed right now. Even using DownThemAll and it's CRAWLING.

    Gahhh, do I ditch my Comodo for Zone Alarm PRO?!?! Maybe I'll download it anyway, just in case.
