Mac App A Day: Free Mac Software Thru December!

Yes, you heard correctly. In order to bring more publicity to Mac software developers, the Mac App A Day website is going to be releasing a new Mac app for free each night starting December 1st and continuing throughout the month, plus one more on New Year's Day. These will either be entirely free, or will have a trial period that has been greatly extended. The biggest problem will be remembering to visit the site each day! No titles have been announced, so we'll all find out together. Can I get a w00t w00t for free stuff?

Helpful Firefox Extensions

Welcome to November, all...mmm, I can almost smell that turkey cooking. Here's one for all the Firefox browser fans out there (yours truly, of course...and you have upgraded to FF 2.0, right?). One of the nice features of the way FF is put together is how you can add functionality to the browser very easily by just downloading and installing an "extension" in FF talk. Need an FTP client? Weather forecast? Want to know when a new GMail message arrives? There's a FF extension for that.

Well, econsultant.com has put together a pretty comprehensive list of FF extensions, sorted by category. I haven't tested any, but I don't think FF v2.0 should have any problems with them. At most, it may prompt you to download the latest version of the extension.
