Great software, with a helping hand to charity

Did you participate in the MacHeist bundle sale? I’m pleased to say that I did.

Could MacHeist Prompt Apple into an App Store for Macs? | Technomix | Fast Company reports:

“MacHeist began as a novel way to sell multiple pieces of Mac software in a discount bundle. It was attractive for developers, who get free ads and guaranteed income for a short period of time, and equally interesting for the buyers, who get full-price software at knock-down prices. And they can feel good about it too: 25% of the revenue earned also goes directly to charity. MacHeist2 donated around $500,000, and MH3–currently in progress–could reach a million dollars.”

I got some great software which I’ve been using daily, some of which I would never have found without this great promotion.

What did you think of this application sale?
