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.
