Adam's Awesome Anecdotes

Just a few things that I found out today:

In order to transfer large files (say, a hefty iPhoto library) between two macs that support firewire, plug in the cable and reboot the old mac (the one with the files to be moved) while holding the ‘T’ key.  Eventually, you’ll see a firewire symbol dancing around the screen.  On the new mac (the target computer) you should see the source machine in the finder now with a pretty gold firewire icon.  For what it’s worth the source machine was running “regular Leopard”, while the target machine was running Snow Leopard.  Obviously, this is MUCH faster that a wired network connection.  

Also, check out Glims for some awesome (and in my opinion much needed) enhancements for Safari — particularly with tab control & search!
