iPhone App You Need Now: Black Friday
In case you missed it, it's November, which means Thanksgiving is right around the corner, Christmas will soon arrive and before you can shout "Happy New Year," it'll be 2010. Not to put the pressure on you, but November doesn't just mean turkey and stuffing — it means Black Friday. I predict that this year, good deals and sales will be more important than ever to get people in the stores to shop for gifts, so be on top of it all with the Dealnews Black Friday app.
The Screen Stache Saver Is Cracking Me Up
Just in time for Movember, a friend just sent me the link to one of the funniest screen savers I've seen, the Screen Stache Saver.
Created by branding firm 160over90, the concept is simple: affix a fake mustache of your choice to the bottom of your computer monitor, download a folder of the eight screen saver images, and set the preferences on your computer to run a screen saver using the folder of images.
The result is a hilarious screen saver that features changing old-school-style photographs of men perfectly positioned to rock your monitor's mustache.
How To: Video Chat With Up to 10 of Your Friends at Once
Although iChat allows me to video conference with up to three people at the same time, sometimes I just want to have an iChat party with more of my friends or family. Same goes for those who work from home and need to video with other co-workers in a conference. And with SuperIM, you can now video chat with up to 10 people.

Download of the Day: Jonathan Adler Smartphone Wallpapers
Similar to my desktop wallpaper, I like to keep my BlackBerry's wallpaper beautiful as well. What is currently adorning my BB's screen? A beautiful floral design wallpaper from the Kindred website which I manually resized to fit my screen perfectly.
Download of the Day: GimmeSomeTune
I swear I can listen to a song over 100 times and still manage to mess up the words, or make up my own — kinda like the Romy and Michele's High School Reunion scene when they sing Footloose (Footloose manages to turn into cut loose).
Because I regularly watch music videos on YouTube, I've used this Greasemonkey extension to help me with song lyrics, but what about my iTunes library? Thankfully a reader has submitted a neat download to the Download of the Day group to help this geek out.
Download of the Day: TooManyTabs
Ever since Firefox and I have patched up our rocky relationship, I've been looking at new ways to spruce up my favorite Internet browser. The FF add-on ColorfulTabs (I couldn't imagine my virtual world without it!) has added the perfect amount of oo la la to not only my browser, but my screen appearance in general. But I'm loving my latest add-on, TooManyTabs, because it provides you with an extra Firefox row, so you don't have to scroll through all your tabs to see them — making it much easier to find specific tabs!
Download Snow Leopard Wallpapers For Free
Apple's latest and greatest OS X operating system was just released on Friday, and I still have yet to pick up my copy. But one thing I can't wait to get my hands on is the pretty new wallpapers that come with Snow Leopard. Thankfully you can download the new desktop pictures in full resolution for free, so you can update your boring background with something fresh and fun for Fall!
Download of the Day: Buy Later
I feel like every holiday season, there's at least one gadget that everyone is trying to get their hands on — remember the instanity with the Wii?
If there's a certain product that you're waiting to come back into stock, but you don't want to have to keep searching Amazon every day to see if it's available, there's a download called Buy Later, which will come in handy.
After downloading this Firefox extension, Buy Later will add a button to Amazon.com webpages and monitors when specific products come back in stock.
Check Out the Universe From Your Desktop With Stellarium
I love heading to the planetarium since it's the only place I can really see the stars through all the lights of the city. But making the trek out there (and paying the entrance fee) makes this a special occasion destination. However, I can still get the same cool effects at home with Stellarium.
