I know second post in the matter of minutes but I really want to take the time to explain how much I enjoyed my first MysteryZOT and the whole macZOT process.

macZOT works with shareware developers to lower the registration fee and then passes the savings along to their site viewers. You don’t have to be a lifetime subscriber to take advantage. You can sign up on the day they have a piece of software you want.

I began my infatuation with them during the whole AppZapper blog spree. The basic premise was to get a certain number of bloggers to mention macZOT and they’d pass along an amazing piece of shareware to everyone who participated in the contest either by blogging or sending an email requesting the software.

After getting the AppZapper for free I was hooked. I check the site out daily to see what software they have available. This past week they had their second mysteryZOT. I didn’t get a chance to participate in the first one, and had $15.00 setting around I could waste.

I don’t try out a lot of miscellaneous shareware because I tend to stick to what I know and like. I thought the mysteryZOT would introduce me to some different shareware developers and if I didn’t like what I was given it was only $15.00. Typically a mysteryZOT ends in a day. This time around they were able to pack more bang for your buck and extended the promotion. A few people complained (about the extension of a day) but I don’t see their point. It was just an extra day. If you can’t stand that kind of suspense I don’t know how you make it through life. MysterZOT is like buying a lotto ticket however you win every time with the MysteryZOT.

Right now I am testing marsEdit and ecto to update my blog. Hopefully soon they will feature both marsEdit and ecto so I can grab a license at a discount.
