The purpose of Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) is to assist you in moving your entire Mac OS X installation or selected folders from one partition to another as easily as possible. CCC can copy all the system files necessary, maintaining Unix permissions and ownership, to create a bootable backup of your drive. Moving your X installation to a larger hard drive? CCC is right for you.

Share My Desktop (SMD) is a simple little wrapper application that I created for OSXvnc in AppleScript Studio. SMD makes initiating a VNC server very simple -- just click a button! You can be sharing your screen with anyone else on the Internet in just seconds! Great for tech support personnel.
