Hi everyone,
I just wanted to let you know of a little utility app I've just
posted, called BuildCleaner. As I explore example projects, open
source frameworks, and test applications, I find that I usually have
a lot of build folders cluttering my hard drive. When you combine
that with backup services like Time Machine, Mozy, or DropBox, you
can waste a lot of your bandwidth uploading build folders.
Time Machine ignores Xcode build folders. This has been discussed on
Xcode-users in the past.

To help with this, I've created BuildCleaner. It's a little menubar
application that scans your hard drive every few minutes for build
folders and deletes them if they haven't been modified recently (you
can change the cutoff interval in the settings window). You can
also tell it to ignore the build folders of specific projects, such
as the humongous project you're following that takes ages to
compile, but you only crack it open every couple of days...
BuildCleaner is free and works on 10.5 and 10.6 (10A432). If
there's a big demand for a 10.4 version, I can put that up, too.
You can download it here: http://www.davedelong.com/downloads
