Check The Files On Your Mac From Any Browser.
FarFinder is a utility which lets you access files on your Mac with any web browser or your iPhone. Sound like fun?
Though FarFinder has to navigate some tricky and complex technology barrier over the internet, it seems to work. The question I have to is, “Why?”
No, not why does it work? But what bother looking at the files on your Mac when you’re not at home? Isn’t this really a solution looking for a problem?
FarFinder lets you sit at a computer, anywhere on the internet, fire up a browser, and if the sun and moon.... (excerpted).

I found this utility the other day, and for someone like me, who travels a lot, with my MBP loaded with tons of files already, this is a perfect solution for me to pickup files - television shows and the like - off my Mac Mini while I’m away.
I have an Eye TV connected to the Mini, and it exports files to IPod format, so I’ll download a couple to watch on the 5 hour flight back if I need to. It’s great!
