About three years after <a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com/2005/11/03/foldershare-acquired-by-microsoft/">acquiring FolderShare</a>, a utility for synchronizing files across multiple computers, Microsoft is retiring the application and plans to <a href="http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/windowsexperience/archive/2008/11/20/windows-live-sync-to-replace-windows-live-foldershare.aspx">replace it with a similar utility called Windows Live Sync</a>. You could make the case that what's happening is Microsoft is renaming FolderShare rather than replacing it, as the new version will likely look a lot like FolderShare and have many of the same functions. But it will also have a few improvements including:<br />
<ul>
    <li>Ability to sync up to 20 folders with 20,000 files each</li>
    <li>You can login with your Windows Live ID</li>
    <li>Integration with the Windos Recycle Bin</li>
    <li>New clients for Windows and Mac</li>
    <li>Unicode support for synchronizing files in other languages (beside English)</li>
</ul>
Why Microsoft is continuing to push this software at the same time as it develops <a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com/tag/live-mesh/">Windows Live Mesh</a> which allows you to synchronize files across mutilple computers, the web, and mobile devices, is anyone's guess.<p><a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com/2008/11/21/microsoft-to-replace-foldershare-with-windows-live-sync/">Microsoft to replace FolderShare with Windows Live Sync</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com">Download Squad</a> on Fri, 21 Nov 2008 16:00:00 EST.

The update, which weighs in at around 250 megs, adds some highly-anticipated features. The two biggest for me are Street View in the Maps app and the ability to download podcasts from the iTunes Store. There are some smaller tweaks that you might appreciate, as well: that bug that sometimes kept messages from downloading in Mail is fixed, and you can click the home button when you're on any page of the home screen to go back to the first page.<br /><br />Street View on the iPhone is every bit as cool as it sounds. It looks good in landscape and is really smooth to control. I suspect it won't be long before we start seeing photos of people holding up iPhone street view pictures of the place they're standing. Less flashy, but just as useful, walking and transit directions are available in maps now, as well. If you're an iPod Touch user, you're unfortunately out of luck on Street View for now, so far it's iPhone only.<br /><br />Downloading podcasts was at the top of my wishlist for the iPhone (although I know a lot of you have <a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com/2008/11/06/please-fix-the-iphone/">lists of your own</a>). It's always frustrating to finish an episode of a good podcast while you're out walking or on a train, and then wait until you get home to hear the next one. Not a problem anymore, thanks to the latest iPhone update. All in all, 2.2 offers some excellent new features. The only thing I have to complain about is the new Safari layout, which feels cramped with the address bar and the search bar smooshed in next to one another.<p><a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com/2008/11/21/iphone-2-2-firmware-is-out-with-street-view-and-podcasts/">iPhone 2.2 firmware is out, with Street View and podcasts</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com">Download Squad</a> on Fri, 21 Nov 2008 08:01:00 EST.

If you do a lot of shopping at Amazon and a lot of comparison shopping or product research on Google, you might want to check out the <a href="http://www.spandexfox.com/">GoogAzon</a> add-on for Firefox. Once installed, any time you search for an item on Google, you'll also see the top search result for your query from Amazon. <br /><br />If a single product listing isn't good enough, just click the "see top 10 items" button and a list of 10 items from Amazon will drop down. Hovering over a link brings up an image of the product. You can also click the Share button to email a product link.<br /><br />Despite it's name, GoogAzon isn't limited to Google searches. It also works with Yahoo! and MSN Live.<br /><br />GoogAzon does appear to inject an Amazon Affiliate code into the links, so the plugin's author will likely make a few bucks any time you actually buy an item found through a GoogAzon search. But it shouldn't cost you anything extra. <br /><br />[via <a href="http://www.firefoxfacts.com/2008/11/20/googazon-product-and-web-search-combined/">Firefox Facts</a>]<p><a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com/2008/11/20/googazon-firefox-add-on-ads-amazon-listings-to-web-search-result/">GoogAzon Firefox Add-on ads Amazon listings to web search results</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com">Download Squad</a> on Thu, 20 Nov 2008 19:00:00 EST.

Long before Hulu, or even YouTube were offering online video, and long before Apple or Amazon were selling digital downloads of TV shows and feature lenght films, there was <a href="http://www.cinemanow.com">CinemaNow</a> and <a href="http://www.movielink.com">MovieLink</a>. The two sites may have been well ahead of their time, but they also never managed to get the kind of attention that newer online video sites have garnered. Last year <a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/08/09/movielink-gets-snapped-up-by-blockbuster/">Blockbuster purchased MovieLink</a> for about $7 million. And this week, software firm <a href="http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117996195.html?categoryid=13&#38;cs=1&#38;nid=2570">Sonic Solutions picked up CinemaNow for just $3 million</a>.<br /><br />CinemaNow has a library of about 6,000 movies and TV shows.

Long before Hulu, or even YouTube were offering online video, and long before Apple or Amazon were selling digital downloads of TV shows and feature lenght films, there was <a href="http://www.cinemanow.com">CinemaNow</a> and <a href="http://www.movielink.com">MovieLink</a>. The two sites may have been well ahead of their time, but they also never managed to get the kind of attention that newer online video sites have garnered. Last year <a href="http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/08/09/movielink-gets-snapped-up-by-blockbuster/">Blockbuster purchased MovieLink</a> for about $7 million. And this week, software firm <a href="http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117996195.html?categoryid=13&amp;cs=1&amp;nid=2570">Sonic Solutions picked up CinemaNow for just $3 million</a>.<br /><br />CinemaNow has a library of about 6,000 movies and TV shows.
