In the tour there is a screen highlighting the menu bar icon used to access Dropbox. To really call out this functionality to the user, the wizard displays a bouncing arrow pointing to the icon. Additionally, the menu bar icon also flashes. Both of these are very nice visual cues and extremely useful ones at that.

Well done Dropbox.
