So we all love the snap windows from Windows 7, but did you know you can get them on OS X as well? There is a great, small program called Cinch that has the same functionality. You drag the windows to the left or right side, and they fill the half of the screen. If you drag the window to the top, it will maximize to the entire screen, a feature that OS X surprisingly doesn't have yet.

When you drag the window to a part of the screen that Cinch recognizes, it will bring up a dashed line to indicate that you can let go.
Cinch is available from Irradiated Software at http://www.irradiatedsoftware.com/cinch/
The full version costs $7, but there is an unlimited free trial. It needs OS X 10.5 or newer to run, which I assume everyone who has a Mac has by now.
