Divvy is an entirely new way of managing your workspace. It allows you to quickly and efficiently "divvy up" your screen into exact portions.
With Divvy, it is as simple as calling up the interface, clicking and dragging. When you let go, your window will be resized and moved to the relative position on the screen. If that seems like too much work, you can go ahead and create as many different shortcuts as you'd like that resize and move your windows in exactly the same way.

What's New
Version 1.3.4:
Improved the behavior of the Divvy icon in the status bar.
Fixed a bug that was causing the About box to show up on launch for some users.
So much of the OS X interface is designed for small MacBook screens now. I have this incredible 27" screen on my iMac, and I just don't need to run most apps in fullscreen mode. I use Divvy on a regular basis, with the keyboard shortcuts, to tile windows all over the screen and keep apps open side-by-side. Great stuff.
Nice add-on, I use the global shortcuts with some settings a lot! Also just learned about the subdivision the grid with 'alt'. Still needs some fixes for Lion though. Especially when setting a window to fill the screen when the dock is present (at the right). The window gets too big and jumps to the left.
Divvy is a very useful tool.
I often have to navigate between many windows. Very easy to get them properly aligned.
However, $14 is too much for that kind of features. And the screen division is not always suitable.
I use it all the time, but it lacks some flexibility and should be cheaper.
I'm one of those people who has to have his drink coaster aligned parallel to the table. I also like to have my windows arranged just as well. Divvy is the perfect bar coaster re-arranger for OSX.
Mac doesn't offer a way to tile apps on the screen until Window does. Divvy basically fill in that gap and even better assignable hot key. With a few keystroke, I can Full screen, 1/2 screen, center, etc... Simple to use and easy to setup.
I'm using the tryout and I would buy this if there was an option to set a shortcut that no matter what application is running, it will immediately resize and locate the windows to the given setting. (Without the need of activating the application first).
