40 Creative Uses For Dropbox Designers and Mac Users Will Love

Dropbox is a great service: it allows users to keep everything (yes, everything) in sync between multiple devices. I daily use Dropbox in my workflow to backup my Yojimbo library and share stuff with my friends and co-workers, and I’m very satisfied. If you’re new to Dropbox, you can signup with this referrall link and, besides testing the service, you’ll make me earn 250 extra MB. (and I will thank you in one way or another)

Anyway, there are many creative yet less known uses for Dropbox. In this roundup I’ve collected the best I found around the web, but if you know more please share them in the comments!

Enjoy ;)

Evernote Account Switcher Brings Support For Multiple Accounts

Although I’m in love with Yojimbo, there’s no doubt that Evernote is the most famous “notes organizer / digital scrapbook” app around.

Built on a solid and intuitive web interface, Evernote is the favourite choice of many Mac users out there, both in its free and premium version. I could write an in-depth review in the next weeks, stay tuned.

ACDSee Pro and Livestream Procaster Available for Beta Testing

Two interesting updates today:

ACDSee, a rather popular Windows software , just rolled out a public beta of ACDSee Pro for Mac. As the developers say “Pro for Mac provides photographers with a fast, flexible workflow platform built from the ground up on the Mac operating system”.

Now, I don’t think ACDSee is ever goin’ to make it against Aperture or Lightroom, but if you want to give it a try here’s the link to the official page.

Last, Livestream, the popular online broadcasting service, has released a first official public beta of Procaster, its official desktop client. While the interface is the same of the Windows application, Procaster for Mac is definitely interesting. Maybe I’ll look into it someday.

Go download.

Visor: A System-Wide Sexy Terminal for Mac OS X

There’s an application every Mac geek can’t live without: the Terminal. Developed with hardcore users in mind, the terminal is the best way to get things done “the hard way”, via text commands.

Now, Terminal is not the best looking Mac application. Indeed, it’s pretty simple and basic. Outdated, many people would say.

Wouldn’t it be great to have a gorgeous, system-wide terminal?
