Cool tool for Web Development
This company:
South River Technologies make a $50 tool that allows you to map a file or folder on a remote website to your Windows desktop or a drive letter. From their website:
bq. WebDrive integrates WebDAV, FTP, or SFTP servers into the Windows desktop by mapping them to a network drive letter. Files are transferred by simply saving them to a drive letter - there's no need to run a separate FTP/SFTP client. WebDrive instantly web-enables any Windows application by providing the ability for these applications to directly open files on web servers. WebDrive can connect to WebDAV, FTP, SFTP(*), and HTTP servers supporting Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions.
Looks cool and if I were doing web development full-time, I would spring for it.
For now, I'm using
SmartFTP which is free for non-commercial personal use.
