Ellipsis Productions releases TuneTagger 1.0

427669182 a90d94fe03 m Ellipsis Productions releases TuneTagger 1.0Today Ellipsis Productions released TuneTagger 1.0. TuneTagger is a new application that takes the work out of tagging your music.

As you play songs through iTunes, TuneTagger automatically grabs the info you have in iTunes and searches on the internet for complete song information. It uses official information from the CDDB database, and it even grabs high-quality album art and song lyrics. Once it gathers all the information it can find, TuneTagger pops up a panel, and all you have to do is approve the information; TuneTagger will then transfer the info to iTunes, without you having to do any of the work.

TuneTagger is distributed as shareware, and can be tried free of charge before purchase (USD$17).

Xeric Design releases EarthDesk 4.0

143784614 690fb1c670 m Xeric Design releases EarthDesk 4.0Xeric Design has announced the release of EarthDesk 4.0, its real-time dynamic desktop map, for Mac OS X. EarthDesk 4.0 has been rebuilt from the ground up as a modern Cocoa product. The application has also been moved from the dock to the System Preferences Panel and there is now an optional menu item for easy access to the most common settings.

EarthDesk replaces your static desktop with a photo-realistic image of the Earth showing current sun, moon and city illumination as well as real-time
global cloud coverage (hurricanes, storms, and worldwide weather systems). The software operates silently in the background, keeping your desktop
updated while you work. Unlike a screen saver, which only appears when your system is idle, EarthDesk’s dynamic desktop is continuously displayed as your desktop background (and optionally as a screen saver).

EarthDesk requires Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) or newer. Single user copies may be purchased online for USD$19.95. Upgrades are available for USD$9.95 or USD$12.95 depending on the status of your existing license.
