SnapperHead

Still on the screenshot topic, SnapperHead is a nifty utility that I've used many times to show a friend how a design was becoming or just how my desktop looked like. The bastards My PC friends can't believe that a 5-year old iMac G3 400 can run a system (Tiger) smoothly and much more good-looking than any Windoze version on a 3Ghz Pentium IV.

Back to the point, the lil' program, when turned on, opens up port 2000 and shows your IP. There's a built in copy function, so you send the address, for example, 160.134.132.104:2000 to a (reliable, non-hacker) friend and if he enters this add in any browser, he will see a snapshot of your desktop! Of course the party is over when you quit the program, and it warns you of every snapshot taken. I heartily recommend it.
