Hi all, I came across this a while ago, thought I'd share.
It's called PHPture and lets you view your Aperture library from other computers on your home network (or the net if you choose to) via your web browser.
I think it is such a great idea, it works regardless of browser (exclude IE), or operating system!
In December the developer updated it to work with the new database format of Aperture 2.0, so I tried it out it and it looks pretty good.
You install it on your host computer - the one with your Aperture library.
This is basically what you need to do:
1) Enable PHP (comes pre-installed with Leopard/Tiger and Panther I think)
2) Enable your Apache web server (in System Preferences under sharing)
3) Copy the PHPture files to your server
4) Change 2 lines of config code
5) Get on other computer and point your web browser to your servers phpture directory (eg I use 10.0.1.12/phpture).
The full installation procedure can be found at the developers website:
http://phpture.sourceforge.net/
Here is an example from the developers website:
What I like about it is that no exporting is required (except for versions but that happens anyway), PHP reads your Aperture library and builds the web page on the fly.
