I just watched the Apple Keynote stream, and I do have to admit I am pretty impressed about some of the new features:

The new Mac and iPod really don't do much for me.

Sling Media's slingbox

Paul Westbrook | 09 January, 2005 20:29

Sling-LogoPVRblog mentions that Sling Media just announced their slingbox at CES. They say that the slingbox is a "placeshifter", instead of the "timeshifter" like a PVR. It is a pretty interesting idea. Supposedly this will stream video anywhere that you want

address-o-sync

Paul Westbrook | 03 January, 2005 19:30

One of the features that I have think has been missing from iSync and .Mac is the ability to sync a subset of my address book with my wife's computer. She doesn't want to have everyone that is in my address book in hers, and I don't want a complete copy of hers either.

I would have hoped that with the .Mac syncing of the Address Book, I could specify only one group that should be sync'd to each computer. But it looks like Apple's implementation will only allows you to sync the whole address book between each computer and the .Mac servers.

address-o-sync is a solution for this problem. This application allows you to specify either your whole address book or one group that can be sync'd across the network.
