Hi,

I would like to introduce SideFolders for Mac. It's a handy application which lets you access your recent files, downloads, places and more by touching the left or right edge of your screen. It also allows you to organize files you often need in an hierarchical structure, so you no longer need to navigate through finder to find the same files over and over again.
