ShoveBox_LogoPerhaps the greatest treasure in the recent MacHeist nanoBundle (which was covered by Simon in a recent post) is ShoveBox. It’s a clippings organizer that lets you capture, view, organize and edit data that is elegant in its simplicity. This very usable application resides in the menubar, making it accessible at all times regardless of what application you are using.

Capture Information in ShoveBox

Living online, we can get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of “stuff” that we need to keep track of — URLs, images, notes, quotes, snippets of information, the list goes on. With ShoveBox, you can easily capture all of that stuff into the application and keep it organized and easy to find when you need it. It’s designed to fit effortlessly into your workflow, making it ideal for users who aren’t productivity or organizational ninjas. Read the rest of this entry »

New MacHeist nanoBundle Is Free

November 6th, 2009 (12:00pm) Simon Mackie 1 Comment

MacHeistNanoMacHeist is well-known for packaging together and heavily discounting some great Mac apps. As reported over on TheAppleBlog, though, the latest MacHeist bundle, the “MacHeist nanoBundle” will cost you precisely nothing — zilch, zip, nada.

The bundle contains six apps that would normally collectively retail for $149:

  • ShoveBox — A clippings organizer that lets you capture, view, organize and edit data.
  • WriteRoom — A simple, distraction-free word processor that Sam wrote about here.
  • Twitterrific — A Twitter client.
  • TinyGrab — A screenshot utility that I reviewed last week.
  • Hordes of Orcs — A tower defense game.
  • Mariner Write  — A full word processor, unlocked when 500,000 people have downloaded the bundle.

The bundle is only available for a limited time (there are six days left as I type this), so go grab it now.
