What isn't making the cut from .Mac to MobileMe



On the surface MobileMe looks like a much better way to spend $99 than .Mac ever was, but there are a few .Mac features that are going to be discontinued. Say farewell to the following .Mac highlights:
  • iCards: I don't remember the last time I sent an iCard, but I always liked the fact that I could.
  • Web access to Bookmarks: you'll still be able to sync bookmarks across machines, but you will no longer be able to access them from a web browser (in case you wanted to check your bookmarks on some random machine).
  • Panther support: this one isn't that big of a shock.
  • .Mac slides: I'm not even sure what .Mac slides are, so I don't think I'll miss this feature much
Any .Mac subscribers out there angered by this list? Let us know in the comments.

PostCard Makes Custom Postcards Easy


Although the they're not as sophisticated as the Flash greeting cards you can now get, I've always liked the simplicity of Apple's iCards. With PostCard you can now make your own iCard style postcards with your own images. You just drag the image onto the card, adjust the size, write your text and pick your stamp. If you so desire you can even customize the stamp image and postmark text. As you can see above there's a convenient button for copying it to the Clipboard for pasting in your email application.

PostCard is $10 and a demo is available (though as you can see, it will watermark the image until you register).

Tip of the Day

Want to drag a file to another folder and copy it instead of moving it? Press the Option key when you drag that file and it'll be duplicated rather than moved entirely.
