.Mac Sync without .Mac

December 26th, 2005 in Apple, Tools & Widgets |

I’ve never used .Mac, but one of the features which I lusted after was the ability to sync the calendars, bookmarks, contacts, mails etc among your Macs (if you have more than one that is ;) )

I researched a bit into this area, and tried to build a little tool by uploading the Database files to a WebDav server, but that ain’t syncing and it felt so kludgy that I quickly stopped doing so.

Now TUAWTUAW reports about an Application which uses the built-in sync-features to sync several Macs, just without .Mac.
Great
