Mmm… MacZot

Monday, April 3rd, 2006

I’ve been watching MacZOT with interest since it started last month, watching for awesome Mac OS X software to be on special, which it usually is.

MacZOT is updated every week day with a new piece of discounted shareware, available for instant purchase, while stocks last. Every so often they mix it up and offer a Myztery ZOT, which is an unknown package of many pieces of software for an amazingly discounted price.

I’m posting this story to maybe scam me a free copy of AppZapper with what MacZOT is calling a “BlogZOT” — every post linking to MacZot will put the price down by five cents. If we get 259 posts about MacZot, 1000 people will get it for FREE…. wooooooot! Be in quick, there’s only like 2h45 minutes to go before the software will be available :D

Get Naked!

Monday, April 3rd, 2006

In the interests of educating about web standards, I’m joining in with the First Annual CSS Naked Day, which is April 5th. It should be good. If you can’t wait till Naked Day, you can view any page on this site by tacking ?gonaked=1 on the end of any inner.geek.nz url, or view this page naked.
