Using Dropbox with Mac OS X Lion.
UPDATE 3 (2011-07-20):
Dropbox 1.1.35 is compatible from OS X Lion.
If you’re feeling a bit adventurous, you can use the “forums build“.
UPDATE 2:
Dropbox Team Member Rian H. posted a reply assuring that the team is working to make Dropbox fully compatible with Mac OS X Lion.
“hey everyone, just wanted to give you all a heads-up that we’ll be working diligently on making dropbox 100% compatible with 10.7 over the next couple of months. stay tuned!”
UPDATE:

The Apple Ratio
Apple announces the launch of Subscriptions on the App Store and firmly establishes the Apple Ratio; 70:30.

I was looking into converting some videos into Google’s WebM format for comparison purposes. I first downloaded theWebM QuickTime Component from WebMProject.org but it never worked. Miro Video Converter turns out to be the one I need to create WebM videos for now. It is loaded with preset video format for quick conversion.
