An Adobe® AIR™-based deal-site monitoring application. It runs in your system tray (yeah… windows systems are currently the only supported. It does run on a mac, but there are some glitches with menus — I’m fixing these shortly) and alerts you once an update has been posted to one of several deal sites. In reality, it’s nothing more than a glorified RSS reader with some customized styling. In it’s current release, it’s a closed source application because it’s a customized list of deal sites and I’m offering it as a companion application on a few other sites. However, I will be releasing the RSS reader/alerter part of it as open source shortly which will allow you to build your own RSS feed alerting application.
Currently, the featured deal-sites are Woot (with support for Woot-offs), Gottadeal, Passwird, Slick Deals, Buy.com and Amazon’s Gold Box. If you have any other deal-site suggestions, please let me know.
Updated for AIR 1.0
