If you haven't been paying attention to all the random Mac Geek news, you may not have heard of Macheist the puzzle, treasure hunt game created by the guys behind "My Dream App" (another brilliant contest that pitted everyday Joe's against each other "American Idol" style to design the most interesting Mac app - the winners get made)
Macheist is slightly different than My Dream App. While the later seemed to pride itself on accessibility of it's site - inviting anyone to participate or vote, Macheist seemed closed off to the public - The Invite only group scoured the Internet looking for clues, conspiracies, and codes, which they could use to "open the vault" and amass a trove of useful Mac applications - and credit towards a final software bundle.
It sounds like, (and in fact, WAS) a lot of fun. But now that it's done and the bundle has been revealed, it's time to share with the masses. And share we must!
If not for the incredible deal of nearly $300 worth of software being sold for $50, there is the added incentive of 25% of the price going to charity. I urge any Mac users to go and take a look at the applications included, you're bound to find something you like, and together, if we raise enough, we can unlock the "top apps" NewsFire and TextMate.
Go to Macheist for the full rundown of the included applications
