Curio Basic offered for free until midnight, August 7th
Remember Curio from Zengobi, that unique brainstorming and project management app we found a couple weeks ago? As a thanks to all the publicity they've been getting lately the company has decided to offer Curio Basic for free - but only until midnight, EDT on Tuesday, August 7th. All you need to do is enter some basic information at the promotion page, and a license (a $39 value) will be emailed to you. Definitely note, however, that one of Zengobi's terms is that they can cancel this offer at any time (probably in case they get slammed with too many requests), so I would recommend you run, don't walk, to snag your copy. After all: you can't beat 'free'.

Same thing here.
They either got swamped by TUAW readers or changed their minds :)

Site's still down - David wasn't kidding when he wrote "run, don't walk" - that lasted about 45 minutes!

If you are really paranoid about entering your address and such (as I am), try this site:
http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/
It generates a fake name, phone number, address, etc.

Dave, I'm in the same boat. I hope it does come. It's only been 3 hours since it was posted here, so hopefully the offer hasn't expired.

Yes - it will come. Mine took about 4 hours, but I just got it! And also... a little FYI for everyone out there!
"We're sure you're going to love Curio Basic, but, if you find
yourself thinking about upgrading to Curio Home or Curio Pro, then
hold that thought and ***please*** stay tuned for additional
promotions which will be announced shortly!"

I just recieved my license as well. Although not being able to draw stuff in the Basic version is a let-down... Oh well, it's free, isn't it? Thanks Zengobi.
