The MacHeist thingiemabob is coming to an end. In this case, thingiemabob is defined as "a big publicity/marketing event for small Mac developers." The salient information is that you can get a bundle of nine applications for $49.

Of the apps in the bundle, I find Delicious Library and Newsfire to be fairly significant; that's DVD/book/game cataloging and a very good RSS newsreader. There's also a personal information manager, an OS level skinning application, a game of your choice, an HTML authoring program, etc. Check out the list for yourself.

I am being fairly self-interested about this; if they raise $100K for charity, TextMate will be unlocked, and I like text editors. 25% of the purchase price is going to charity, and they're just over $50K right now, so another four thousand purchases would do the trick.

Well, it looked good. But I kept getting an error when trying to make my purchase, and one of the "cannot be processed" undescriptive variety. If they've charged me three times for my three resubmits, I'll be quite pissed.

I always forget macheist is going on, thankyou for posting the info. I had already been planning on picking up the delicious library to help get my books under control and now I get that and other fun things and get warm fuzzies for supporting charity. Huzzah.

Sidenote: My purchase went through fine, but I used paypal.
