If you want to bring Flickr onto the desktop with minimal fuss, then you may want to look at Flickery. Drag & drop photos into a library that’s synced online, explore community videos and photos, and add all the metadata you want with tags and comments. A neat trick Flickery has up its sleeve is the ability to see local photos from your area based on location – if you’re visiting in Paris or Rome, you might be able to catch up on familiar landmarks with an assumably endless supply of tourist photos. This feature extends so you can click on alternative locations to plan your next photo-venture with just a few clicks (like Localscope where you can browse around manually). Fullscreen mode is available so you can see photographs in their entire beauty, and you can search by text to find exactly what you’re looking for. Federico reviewed Flickery a long while ago, and he found it to be pretty gosh-darned perfect for his volume of iPhone photos. But if you missed out on our earlier giveaway, we’re giving away three more copies this weekend just for you.

One Of Five Copies Of CalendarBar Can Be Yours
We reviewed CalendarBar yesterday as the tidy menu drop-down that shows your upcoming events in iOS fashion, and we think it’s nifty enough to give away. First let’s recap: CalendarBar connects with Facebook, iCal, and your Google Calendar accounts to pull in events and display upcoming things you have to do based on your guidelines. I personally only like to see what’s going on today, but you’re free to adjust your own schedules. It’s an event viewer made beautiful, removing the need to keep otherwise large email clients open all day. You can check it out at Clean Cut Code’s product page, or simply visit the Mac App Store for more information. Once you’re done, you can head past the break below for your chance to win a copy of your very own.

Start the Clock! Speed-Up & Chronos Are In This Timely Giveaway
Podcasts and getting things done tend to go hand-in-hand at the office. For those who want to blaze through a podcast session, your iPhone offers the ability to speed up your talking heros for a quicker injection of information. Speed-up brings that same control to your Mac via the menubar, and it was reviewed a while ago as a podcast throttle for your Mac.
Chronos is also an app we recently reviewed, and continues our time theme by keeping track of various tasks and projects on your Mac. It’s very simple to use, and can accommodate a Mac user as a progress indicator from the dock or menubar.
We’re giving away four copies of each, and we recommend that you check out Speed-up and Chronos in the Mac App Store before clicking past to the giveaway after the break.

A Minimalist Task Manager Could Be Yours: TaskAgent Giveaway
TaskAgent is pretty slick for being so simple, and the developer has already promised an update to improve compatibilities with formatting notes on the Mac side of things (and it’s pretty stupid easy already). With such ease, you’re more likely to get things done than organizing lists of to-dos or burying important items in sub-categories of a master-category. For work or at home, those who want the bare essentials may want to check out our previous coverage of TaskAgent before entering our latest giveaway.

MacStories Product Giveaway: The AViiQ Portable Laptop Stand
Nothing should be more flexible or more comfortable than your mobile lifestyle. That’s why AViiQ created the Portable Laptop Stand which I had the pleasure of reviewing. It’s designed to be portable, light, yet strong enough to withstand the stress of everyday computing. The AViiQ Portable Laptop Stand compromises on none of these things: imagine slipping a curious fine sheet of aluminum into your laptop bag, only for it to unfold on the table as something uniquely striking. The thin, brushed style of the stand, combined with its sharp looks, simply disappears underneath your MacBook. Inverted or upright, folded opened or closed, we’re giving away a truly fine product from the folks at AViiQ so you too can enjoy the comfort and mobility of the world’s thinnest laptop stand.

We Think You’ll <3 Joypad Too: We Have Ten Copies To Give Away
If you’re not already familiar with my love of Joypad, you might want to check out yesterday’s video filled review.

We’re giving away ten copies of Joypad to several lucky readers this weekend, so if you love blasting pixel pirates or have an iOS toting gamer in your life, you might want to click the tweet button after reading our rules past the break.
