XShelf is freeware that enhances drag and drop in MacOS X by letting you “pause” drag and drop operations, as well as have multiple drag and drop operations in flight at once.
You can drag files or folders from Finder into the shelf and they will sit there until you drag them out. Once you drag them out, the drag operation will finish as if XShelf were never involved. You may drag individual or multiple files or folders, as well as text clippings and URLs to XShelf. With XShelf, you no longer have to shuffle windows so that both the source and target of a drag and drop are onscreen at the same time.

Okay – this is ONE COOL APP. I’ve already decided, after only 15 minutes of use, that it is invaluable. Apple should build this functionality into the next version of OS X!
Very clever program. Now you don’t have to use the bar at the top of the finder window to move files around. Sweet!
