youPod: Your Home Away from Home on your iPod
Originally downloaded January 23, 2007. youPod has been out for quite awhile now, and unfortunately hasn't been updated lately. Still, the idea is sound, and the implementation appears to be easy and intuitive. With youPod, you can take your addresses, keychain, bookmarks, calendar, music, and (I think) mail with you. When you plug your iPod into another computer, you can switch your stuff in and out of the stuff on the other computer using the youPod menubar tools. Yes, if you have .Mac you can get most of this anyway (though not the music part), but on someone else's computer getting to your .Mac stuff can take some setup (as well as your own account). At $12.95, youPod seems like it's worth a try.
