Box.net is an iDisk-like service that allows you to mount an 
'internet hard drive' on your desktop (they offer both free and paid 
accounts). Great for easily and securely backing up, syncing and 
sharing files between computers. Previously, they apparently only 
offered a client for PCs, but UNEASYsilence has published a simple 
tip for logging in and mounting your Box.net account on your Mac OS X 
desktop - no extra software necessary. Using the simple power of the 
Go > Connect to Server menu from the Finder, you too can have your 
very own WebDAV online hard drive. 1 GB is free, while 5 GB is 
$4.99/month, and 15 go for $9.99/month. Enjoy.
