Port Map and TCMPortMapper
TheCodingMonkeys: “Some times you want to access your computers at home from anywhere in the world. Be it the web server on your home server, the file sharing on your desktop machine or a remote login to your parent’s computer to support them doing their work. This is where the application ‘Port Map’ might come handy.” (New software from the SubEthaEdit folks.)
Side note: check out the screenshot and note how iPhone-style On/Off widgets appear in the app. I’ve also seen this in VPN Tracker. I wonder if we’ll see it in more apps, and if it will become a standard part of the Mac user interface.

Apple woos the terminal geeks
InfoWorld: “The growing number of Unix-friendly Mac users is especially apparent here at the O’Reilly Mac OS X Conference, where developers and enthusiasts have gathered to discuss the company’s new operating system. One sure sign that Apple is winning over Unix users is the abundance of laptop-totting Mac users who command their computers with a terminal window rather than a mouse.”

Jaguar, next major Mac OS X update coming this summer
MacCentral: Jaguar will “come with Rendezvous, Apple’s proposed new industry standard for automatic discovery of computers, devices and services on IP (Ethernet, AirPort) networks. In other words, the technology will let Macs automatically recognize other computers on a wired or wireless network and share files with each other or, theoretically, with other digital devices. In his keynote, Jobs demoed streaming music files off of another Mac connected through an AirPort network.”
