Do you use Mac Automator? What for?

I just discovered this application today, despite having mac 10.4+ for two years now. I was driven to it because I use both Songbird and iTunes (no link necessary). Songbird can download lots of cool new music from various online sources, but then iTunes doesn’t recognize it, and you have to manually add it, which is tricksy, and you have to stay on top of it.

Enter Automator! I created a workflow to add any files modified in the downloads folder since yesterday to a playlist (“Library”). It runs automatically at midnight daily, thanks to iCal. It’s a beautiful (albeit overly complex) thing, this Mac synergy.

Have you used Automator to solve any of your computing conundrums? Any cool workflows to pass on?
