Sync Things across multiple Macs via Dropbox
Authored by: tempel on Dec 02, '10 09:50:03AM

Oh, and before someone responds that this is no problem because Dropbox does indeed detect such conflicts, preserving both versions of the DB files:
The problem is that you will then have two DB files, each containing a different set of Todo items. But these files are in a very cryptic format, making it close to impossible to merge the differences for the average user. It can be done, but it's a big pain. And if you don't notice this conflict immediately, it'll only get harder merging them later.
