Downloadr is a photo downloader for Microsoft Windows. It provides a simple interface to download large sized images from Flickr to your computer. You do not need a Flickr account to use Downloadr, though you do have even more functionality (like the ability to do a complete backup of all your photos) if you register at flickr.com.

Dropbox Automator Automatically Processes Images, Text, PDFs and Other Files in Your Dropbox Any Way You Choose

Dropbox Automator is a powerful web app that connects to your Dropbox account and monitors folders of your choice, performing automated actions you define when new files are detected. This can be anything from converting a document to PDF, resizing images and uploading them to Facebook, plus a whole lot more.

The set up process is pretty simple. You'll need to authorize Dropbox Automator to access your files to get started, and when doing so it'll show up as Wappwolf—the service that powers it. Once you've got that out of the way, you can select a folder you want to use for automation. Unfortunately you cannot create a new folder from within Dropbox Automator, so if you want to add a new one you should do that on your local machine before you log in (or just reload the page if you already have). Once you select the folder you want, you can start assigning actions from the provided list. They're all pretty self-explanatory, but the labels on some of the action options are not as human-readable as they could be. If you read them carefully they'll make sense, but currently they appear to be labeled by their method names. Once you're past that little bit of confusion and you've selected all you're actions, just save your choices and you're all set. Now any relevant files placed in the Dropbox folder you chose will be subject to the automation you set up.

Note: Processing takes a minute and the results will show up in a folder called "results." A folder called "processed" will appear first, containing the files that were just processed. Those will be the unaltered copies. Wait for the "results" folder to appear to see the actual results.

This is a very useful tool that can do a lot with the stuff you keep in your Dropbox without any work on your part. It's still a little rough around the edges, but definitely worth a look.

Apple's Time Machine is a great feature in their OS, and Linux has almost all of the required technology already built in to recreate it. This is a simple GUI to make it easy to use.
