So Apple have published a new page to their site(s) titled Enhancements and Refinements (for Snow Leopard)
http://www.apple.com/macosx/refinements/enhancements-refinements.html
Here’s just some of the features I’ve picked out:
- Put Back from the Trash
- Better Disk Eject behaviour, including telling you what App has a disk Open
- Setting default search location to Current folderÂ
- Printer Driver Updates
- Split Pane terminal is back!
- Apparently some super file sharing energy saving magic:
Quote:

- Date in the Menu bar. It seems small, but seeing todays date at a glance is very useful
- GPU acceleration for QuickTime X Video decoding
- Exchange support
- Data Detectors now identify fly details
- Multi-Touch for older laptops
- Grand Central Dispatch + OpenCL
Head on over to the Apple site and have a good read, it’s worth a look.

Just a quick reminder that MacWorld 2008 takes place later this morning. For those of you looking for minute-by-minute coverage of the keynote, there are several choices. MacDailyNews has been a favorite in the past, and this year they are apparently using “Coverit Live,” which will apparently provide up-to-the-minute entries without the need of refreshing.
