I myself am a big fan of Burn for my OSX burning needs that aren't met by diskutil..

As for the whole Transmission vs Azureus thing. Transmission has a nice tiny footprint like uTorrent on Windows or kTorrent on Linux.

Protip: If using Leopard, you can hit Spacebar if you have a selected file. Doing so will give you a small window showing the document, movie, or song.

thanks for the tip DigitaDD, I use uTorrent on my Vista tower so I'll probably try that one you recommended.

Tulkas, ya Leopard continues to amaze me. so many little tricks and shortcuts

Make sure to get the Straferight Dock (the indicators are little "D" keys")

For Leopard only.

Dope

Not sure if that SR widget is working correctly. Everything is current, except when I click a story it doesn't open it in a web browser. It only opens to the link when I click the header.

Hmm.

It looks like this broke with Safari 3.1.

I'll look into it.

If you already have Adium, there is an xfire plugin called: XBlaze that you can download for free

I just signed up for it so I have no friends to test it out, but it would be pretty awesome if this worked.

Here are also step-by-step directions: Step By Step Guide to Setting Up XBlaze - XBlaze Forums
