FreeMacWare.com would like to invite everyone to join us in Developer Appreciation Day, December 16th, 2005.

In an effort to show our appreciation for all the freeware developers, please join us in making a donation to the developer of your favorite freeware. It doesn’t have to be much. Even if you give $5, it will show appreciation for their work and let them know you’re thankful. And if there are many donors, it could add up for them this Christmas season. It may not be how some people encourage developers, but we think that it will let them know that their work is used and enjoyed by many.

What can you do?

  • Mac Users: If you are a Mac user, just determin a freeware app that has been useful to you. Maybe a freeware has saved you in a bind. (Address Book Importer) Or maybe it has saved you with Windows troubles. (TNEF’s Enough) Or maybe freeware just saves you from spending a lot of money elsewhere. (Azureus) Whatever the case, determine your freeware, then visit the site and make a donation.
  • Bloggers and Webmasters: If you have the ability to spread the word, we invite you to do so. Let people know about Developer Appreciation Day by making a banner or blog post for the cause.
  • Developers: As you receive donations, be sure to write them back and let them know that you are real people and you appreciate the nod. If you get so many that it is hard to keep up, let us know and we’ll post your gratitude in a post to let everyone know it was appreciated.

So what do you say folks, spread a little of that holiday cheer to the people that make your Mac experience more productive and joyful.
