Grab the day’s bargains with BargainHunter
I don’t know about you but I don’t mind having a bit of a look at those “one-bargain-a-day” websites just to see what deal they’re offering. The problem is that I have to remember the name of the websites, punch them into Firefox and go and check them.
Now this might sound stupid, but I don’t always have time to do it so I thought, what about a tool that did all that for me: went to the websites, found the latest “deal of the day” and then brought it back to my desktop where I could scan a list and see if any of them interested me.
That’s what BargainHunter does.
At the moment, it works for Australian websites only such as Zazz and Catch Of The Day but it makes find out the day’s deals a snap. Just install the app, run it and it will find the deals and then list them on the screen for you.

Problems with DVD-HD 2009 and VOB files?
about 1 year ago - 17 comments
In case you’ve been trying to encode VOB files with DVD-HD 2009 and finding that the encoding tool hits 100% but keeps on encoding, here’s a quick rundown on what’s happening:
* first up, the chances are ffmpeg, the encoding engine, is not picking up the run time (duration) of your video file correctly and that’s
New software – Rip & Burn CD/DVD copier for Windows

With the few seconds I get spare these days, I’ve cobbled together a CD/DVD copying tool called Rip & Burn. The idea came about when I needed an update for a tool I developed for PC User magazine a couple of years ago called 4Burner. That tool could rip a data CD or DVD and

One of the most common problems we’ve seen as readers try the UserOS series of Linux distros I’ve developed for PC User magazine is simply burning the disc correctly.
The most common mistake is burning the ISO image as a simple data disc. Do that and it just doesn’t work. You have to burn the image

I noticed you removed a couple of sites from the list. Techaday I can understand as I don’t think they’ve updated for months. Ozstock seems to be running still.
I also see your scraping Miss Zoe and 1-day but not displaying. It would be great to have a complete list of all the 1 day shopping sites.
A couple more are dailygizmo.com.au and crazystu.com.au
