The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

• All App4Mac products are on sale today, 50% off with the discount code 'blackfriday.' The company's flagship xTime Project charting & management tool drops from $99 to $50 with the discount; same for team shift scheduler FlexTeam. The fine folk of Freeverse Software are offering a similar 50% discount on all the company's Mac apps and games -- use discount code 'thanksgiving' at checkout. Pangea Software is also getting in on the discounting with a $0.99 sale on all its iPhone games (Cro-Mag Rally, Enigmo, Nanosaur II) on Friday. For a more complete rundown of App Store deals, check out the big list at appstoreapps.com.
• If you sometimes need to send large files to family or colleagues, the deal on Gracion Enclose can't be beat; the $34 file sending utility drops to $9.99 today. It works with MobileMe or any web hosting service to transparently package and upload your data.
• You can save a bundle on a bundle of note manager & organizer TopXNotes along with dictation tool iListen through the end of the day -- $140 for a set that would normally retail at $200. Not to be outdone, the note-taking and organizational apps from DEVONtechnologies (including TUAW notable DEVONthink) are all 25% off.
• If you're more a numbers person than a wordsmith, you can explore an inexpensive and powerful Microsoft Excel alternative by turning to Tables. This German-developed spreadsheet is 33% off the usual $42 today when you use the 'thanks08' discount code.
• Picking up Rapidweaver themes from Elixir Graphics is quite a bit cheaper today. Discount code 'blackfriday' gets you 40% off any order over $15 from among the themes and extras in the company's library. The same code works next door over at the Icon Lab, if you need some icons for something or other. (If you need actual Thanksgiving icons, the Iconfactory has got you covered.)
• Beyond software and hardware, there's the opportunity to learn about, well, software and hardware. It's About Time Products has introduced two new video training titles, It's About Time to Learn the Switch to Mac and It's About Time To Learn The iPhone 3G. Both downloadable and physical-store boxed products are on sale, but there's a special way to get a free title -- take a 'treasure hunt' picture of the boxed product this week, in a store, and email it in. Okay, y'know, whatever works! If you're beyond the basics on your Mac, you can try for a free subscription to MacTech magazine (first 100 survey respondents only) and learn Mac OS X from the inside out.
