Product Description:

MarcoPolo brings context-aware computing to your portable Mac computer. It allows your computer to determine its context through gathering evidence from your environment (evidence sources), using flexible rule-based fuzzy matching to make an educated guess (rules), and then performing arbitrary actions upon changing context (actions).

MarcoPolo's concept of contexts is a generalisation of a location, and encompasses more than just where your computer is. A context might represent what you are doing, or what else is going on around you.

MarcoPolo quietly stays in the status bar at the top of your screen (right-hand side of the menu bar), from where it can be configured to your own needs.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.4 Intel
  • Mac OS X 10.4 PPC

MarcoPolo ReviewFantastic Utility! - Version: 2.3, 10/6/2007 11:56PM PST

I have been using MarcoPolo for about 4 or 5 months now and I absolutely love it. It makes handling moving from one network to another an absolute breeze and completely automatic. It automatically changes between my wifi networks and my 3G wlan card when I insert the card. It includes things like changing SMTP servers for different networks which network locations does not do. I highly recomend this utility for laptop users.

MarcoPolo ReviewI am delighted with MarcoPolo - Version: 2.2, 10/1/2007 03:13PM PST

because it does exactly what it says it will do. I set it up to switch location and default printer based on the IP address and I now don't give it a thought because it all just happens automatically. And you can't beat the price :)

Had to go to the developer's site to find out what this app *really* does...sure wasn't apparent to me (at least) from the description. And I certainly wasn't thrilled when the description touted the fact that the app would be performing "arbitrary actions" on my install!!
