Cyberduck

by Jacob on May 14, 2007, under Technical

Despite having a pretty cool name, Cyberduck is a pretty cool program.  It is an FTP/SFTP program for Mac OS X.  I like using it to upload files to my webserver using SFTP.  It integrates in with my Mac operating system pretty well, and best of all, it is open source.  Being open source means that I’ll never be charged for it, and I can copy and redistribute it as much as I want.  I can even change part of the program if I want.  Anyway, I just wanted to give a shout out and applaud those who have worked on Cyberduck and say, thanks.

Like I said, Cyberduck does a great job at integrating with the rest of the OS X system.  It has plugins for Growl and Quicksilver.  It seamlessly integrates with a good set of editors.   It takes advantage of Bonjour, Spotlight, and the OS X keychain, and can use iDisk for synchronizing bookmarks.
