Cinch: Windows' areo snap for Mac OSX

When regularly switching between operating systems like Windows 7 and Mac OSX like myself, you'll often notice handy features missing in both operating systems that you're used to. One of the things I missed in OSX is Windows' "Aero Snap". This feature allows you to maximize and scale windows by dragging them to the edges of your screen.

Irradiated Software has made a cool small app for OSX named Cinch. This application gives you the same functionality as Windows' "Aero Snap". In my opinion, it even works a bit better than in Windows: it has better dual/multi screen support. While in Windows I could only drag windows to the far left and right edge of the screens, Cinch allows you to snap windows on each edge of each screen.

Unfortunately CInch is not free, but is worth its $7. Go take a look on their website.
