Lets all remember that we shouldn't focus on GETTING, but we should focus on GIVING.
So I'm focusing on what the mac giving tree is GIVING me, which is hard because the site appears to have just gone down. Anyone else get through?

What about Festivus! You disappoint me TUAW.

An oversight that is now corrected. (Were you airing a grievance, in the holiday spirit?)
Bill said 1:48AM on 12-25-2008
Merry Christmas to TUAW staff and all my co-readers:)

I don't know why this has become the Mac Giving Tree thread, but... I think some of the apps we get are different. Merry Christmas!

sam said 1:54AM on 12-25-2008
Only because they haven't made a new post about it yet.
What did you get that was different?
artifex said 1:53AM on 12-26-2008
sam: I got Synergy, Enigmo 2, iConqueror, 1password, Headline, and Santa Snaps. Did not get Laguru or Ringtone2. Maybe those were for people who added friends' names to the email list?

It's Hanukkah.

It's a transliteration -- there are multiple 'correct' English spellings.
