- Flip4Mac, a free QuickTime plugin that opens .wmv files in QuickTime Player and lets you stream them in Safari. Bye-bye, Windows Media Player. I always hated you anyway. Opens files with no delay; haven't had a chance to test streaming yet because I don't run across many web videos in .wmv.
- FlickrBooth, a free Photo Booth plugin that lets you upload snapshots to Flickr automatically or at will. Works like a charm so far.
- The new version of Flickr Uploadr, apparently standard for Mac and PC (I have no PC to test that theory with). Since the FlickrExport plugin for iPhoto started costing money (heaven forbid), this is my new favorite option, and this version seems far superior to the old one. Since all editing now takes place in one window, you can perform batch operations and then change them for individual photos. You can also reorder pictures (and actually be sure of how they'll show up in your photostream). Now if they would just integrate it with iPhoto, life would be perfect...

Found while trawling the internet, as I am wont to do (insincere apologies to PC users, as two of these don't apply to you):

Yeah, I didn't find the Flickr iphoto utility worthy of paying for it. I can accomplish the same thing by exporting a selection, and then using the uploader. I didn't know there was a new version...I'll have to see what it does.
ReplyDeleteFlip4Mac certainly *is* an essential plug in on my Mac. With all the PC/WMV content out there, you gotta have it.
I hear they have another cool app called Drive In.
