Mac OS X Lion: Taking a Closer Look

If you’ve upgraded to Lion, you will notice the new features and the fact that the mouse is inverted. However, there are things that you can do in Lion that you probably won’t know about unless you really look into it.

For instance, Spotlight looks normal right? Wrong… There are previews built in and you can drag files from Spotlight to your desktop or Mail, or another client.

Photo booth has new effects including: Space Alien, Blockhead, Dizzy, and Lovestruck.

Not only is there a feature where you can now view all your files in one organized view in Finder, you can select a bunch of files and make a older from them.

If you put a folder of name X into a folder of name X,  Lion will ask you if you want to merge the folders.

If you lose your Laptop, Lion can arrange a way to recognize that its lost and tell the user how to return it to you.

To do this, go to System Preferences and choose Security &Privacy and in the General tab, check the Show a message when the screen is locked and then add your message below it.
