Great software taste, less controversially filling!

SantaSnaps‘Twas the day before the night before the night before the night before Christmas and all through the tubes…what rhymes with tubes? Rubes? n00bs? Oh, forget it. Anyway, here’s an update on holiday Mac happenings.

If you haven’t checked out MacSanta since Derik’s initial post, you may be interested to know that it’s up to 98 participating companies as of this writing. I’ve got my fingers crossed that they’ll break the 100 mark today. Remember, it’s 20% off everything on the list with the coupon code MACSANTA. We’ve decided to join the fun by giving you 20% off our blog content. Let’s see, 20% of nothing…carry the five…

Also, the Cocoa Holiday Duel at Ten Paces is officially under way with a handful of apps from the likes of Daniel Jalkut, Gus Mueller, and Austin Sarner. I downloaded a bunch of them this morning, and they’re pretty amusing, but—as to be expected—a bit buggy. I really like John Casasanta’s SantaSnaps, but it kept saving corrupt image files, so I had to take that creepy screenshot above. The duel runs until midnight MST of Tuesday, December 26th; you can support your favorite app by making a donation to that developer’s charity.
