After the release of Read It Later’s major update for iPhone (read my review if you missed it), the web interface went under a huge restyling too. Now the RiL platform shares the same interface between the web reading list, the iPhone app and the famous Firefox addon.

But what about the Mac? Is there an official Read It Later client for our desktops? The answer is no. But, there’s this Josh Nichols guy, who put together a userscript called “Read It Later Restyled” that brings the awesomeness of the newest update to a Fluid app near you. Just create a SSB with Fluid, download the userscript and place it into yourname/Library/Application Support/Fluid/Read It Later/Userscripts.

The result is gorgeous, and you can also download some custom icons from Josh Nichols’ website. Can’t wait to see what Instapaper Restyled creator will come up with.

Interesting update for jitouch (read my article if you missed it) which has reached the 2.0 version.This update brings even more gestures for web browsers,a better preference pane, more customizable actions.

You can download jitouch here.

So, it’s finally over. The #appstree, the event I launched last week and which included over 500 licenses of Mac and iPhone apps has come to an end. I’d like to thank everyone who supported me during this event and the whole organization process: my Twitter followers, the readers who commented, the TechCrunch guys, the designers and developers who agreed to be interviewed or write a guest post.

Thank you.

Now, this is the post with the names of the winners. The list is pretty long, so I suggest you to Cmd + F on the page and search for the username you used in the comment. Some names come with a number next to them, that’s the number of the comment. As for the licenses, they’ll be sent during next week and the first week of January: there’s Christmas, the New Year Eve, so it’s impossible for me and the devs to send them right now. But don’t worry, you’ll receive the licenses straight into your inbox. Also, iPhone promo codes will be sent out first, as they’re very likely to expire. Last, I’m very glad to say that I’ve still got many interviews to publish, be sure to check them out.

The list is after the jump. And again, thank you!

It was some weeks ago when I first gave you an exclusive sneak peek of Thoughts, an upcoming word processor / note taking app for Mac. Today the developers Green & Slimy, together with MacBuzzer, launched an interesting bundle: if you preorder Thoughts now, you can later get 3 Mac applications for free.

The apps are Yum, Family and ResizeMe. Pretty good, actually. Now, what you have to do is read my post and if you believe you’re gonna need Thoughts.app, head over the website to preorder the app.

Really nice and brief overview from Chris Bowler, who prefers Droplr over Cloud app. And like I said yesterday, Droplr is currently better than Cloud, let’s see if this is gonna change.

“I’ve been using either Droplr or Cloud for the past 3 months and both are great tools. But Droplr comes out ahead in a few ways. For those who haven’t caught the bug yet,here’s a list of things I regularly use Droplr for.

- Shorten URLs — every link I post in Twitter comes from Droplr. This way I can track what I’ve shared and how often it’s been clicked. Other URL shorteners do this for you, but Droplr includes this service in with everything else it does.

- No more attachments — do you have files that you regularly attach to emails? Rather than make slow emails, just upload your file to Droplr and include the link in the email.”

“The genius is in the casting. The Mac guy, Justin Long, is a younger version of Steve Jobs who is casual and comfortable in his skin. PC, personified by John Hodgman, as a rounder, paler Bill Gates, is a well-meaning geek with all kinds of operating problems. For Apple, the campaign managed the neat trick of making the brand look laid back and cool while it mercilessly skewered its rival”

Now, let me post one of my favorite ads, Broken Promises. Pure genius.

It’s at times like this I really hope for a fake. I mean, forniture?

Yeah, the Apple Table.

“According to Apple, Nokia is infringing on 13 of its patents. Apple’s lawyer was very blunt in his statement concerning the case.

“Other companies must compete with us by inventing their own technologies, not just by stealing ours,” said Bruce Sewell, Apple’s General Counsel and senior vice president.”

Has Apple finally realized that the Ovi Store was a copy of the App Store?
