Congratulations to you all – you’ll be receiving your license code via email within a few days. We’ll have another competition for our awesome readers coming very soon!

We’re running a another huge competition this week, with ten (yes, ten!) copies of ExpanDrive on offer, worth $400. We reviewed ExpanDrive yesterday, and found it to be an excellent tool for integrating FTP access with the OS X Finder.

It’s a great solution if you’re a web designer, developer, regularly back up to an FTP server, or don’t want to fork over $99 for access to an iDisk.

Entering is simple. All you need to do is:

  1. Post a link to this competition – either on your website, or via Twitter
  2. Leave a comment, letting me know where you posted the link!

The competition will run for 10 days, and we’ll randomly select ten winners on Friday the 5th June. The odds of winning a license are incredible, so don’t forget to subscribe via RSS or follow us on Twitter to find out if you’ve been successful.

Good luck!

With the availability of all-in-one development apps such as Coda and Espresso, a dedicated FTP program is beginning to seem like a fairly archaic way to access remote data. ExpanDrive offers a modern solution to FTP access by integrating seamlessly with the OS X Finder. Once connected, you can modify files from any application as if using a local USB drive.

After using ExpanDrive for a few weeks I can safely say that I won’t be returning to any other system. It works completely as advertised and performance is impressive. This review will take a look at how ExpanDrive works, and suggest a few changes you may need to make before migrating to it fully.
