AppleScripts, Mona Lisas, and Mad Hatters

It turns out that the 24U Scripting Addition included with Mount Me! was version 3.01, not 3.1, which in turn would not except the embedded freeware license code. A new archive has been uploaded in Downloads, so if you are experiencing any problems, please and install this minor update. Any problems, let us know. Thanks.

Google’s new Street View button, now available at Google Maps and in limited cities so far, is without a doubt really quite astonishing. They’ve promised more cities to come and I personally can’t wait. Check it out at Google Maps, click the Street View button, and choose one of the covered areas. Some folks, though, are worried about privacy issues, and rightly so. Where do you stand?Read the NYT article…As a postscript, Apple’s iPhone uses the Google Maps API, so it’ll be interesting to see if this functionality ever makes it into their new phone.

In the June 2007 issue of Mac | Life, Cache Out X (COX) received an honorable mention as a ‘shareware pick’ for getting rid of caches, cleaning up hidden files, and more. Though COX is donationware, it’s free to use, free to keep, and well, just plain free. Though if you’d like to make a donation (always welcome!) to its current parent, Jim Mitchell, author of the astounding YASU, you’ll receive lots of good karma and help reduce global warming! Ok, it won’t reduce global warming, but the good karma is true. At least that’s the general consensus of many scientists across the globe. Wait, that’s global warming again! Sorry!Now if you’re wondering why NoName Scriptware is hyping COX, some may remember that it began and germinated here before Jim Mitchell kindly adopted my lonely baby, added cool stuff, great features, stability, tested and made available three versions for the last three releases of OS X (download here!), and is quite honestly a very nice guy, family man, friend, and father. Below you can see a portion of that Mac | Life column in case you didn’t get your June 2007 issue yet!![]()

Having migrated to WordPress, you’ll see that the dust still hasn’t settled. To download the files you are looking for, simply go to the Downloads tab. Within the next few weeks we’ll be adding more descriptions and items, but this will at least allow you to get the stuff you’re looking for. Thanks for your patience!
