Mac Giving Tree rewards you with free applications

When you sign up, you are able to join the Mac Giving Tree -- this gives you a few free applications upon sign up. I got Synergy and Enigmo 2 absolutely free. On Christmas Day, you are able to visit the site, sign in, and "unwrap" other presents that show up below the tree. When you refer your friends, you are able to get additional presents to unwrap.
Visit the Mac Giving Tree to get your free applications, and while you're there take a look at the page design. If you Twitter a message starting with @macheist, your tweet will automatically show up on the page ... that's just pretty nifty.
Thanks, Phil!

If I forgot to write down the Enigmo 2 serial number can I still get it now? I played the first 8 levels and thought it was fun.

Super. TUAW continues to be a shill for Phil, the snake-oil salesman. Phil and his cronies are the worst thing to happen to the Apple community in years. Bilking people out of their hard-earned money under the guise of charity, while raking in the majority of the money for themselves

Programs is screwing with anybody's wallet. Or creating super fun puzzels with some great rewards.
Before you tell me that they are stealing from developers, have you not noticed that developers often enter a bundle or a giveaway twice? What Stupid person would do this is they were losing money on the deal?
And as for the charity bit, I don't think they ever claimed to be one, and gave exact data about how much was going to charity. Not much screwing to be seen.
I want more gifts !!!
