GeekSugar Geek Tip: Count Down to Any Big Day Online May 18, 2009 3:30 AM The mathlete in me loves countdowns. There are seven month left until Christmas. Less than 30 days until the new iPhone comes out. Four days until my new shoes arrive via UPS. Just a few hours until the season finale of Gossip Girl . You get the picture. If you aren't a numbers person naturally (hey, we can't all be Lindsay Weir) you can build anticipation for your big day — be it a walk down the aisle, high school reunion, or even the weekend — using your everyday gadgets. Calculate Days Left From the Web : If you just want to know the number of days you have left, visit this website , type in the date and let the site's algorithms do the number crunching for you. Install the Countdown Dashboard Widget : If you're a Mac user, install the free countdown dashboard widget . It's generic, so you set a date and time and it starts ticking. You can also set alerts. It's aces for long term goals (you have 45 days to work out before hitting the beach in that tiny bikini you just bought!) and daily reminders. Download the iPhone Countdown Calendar : If you're an iPhone or iPod Touch user you can get your geek on with this handy app ($3). Put a Countdown on iGoogle : You can put the Countdown to Any Google Gadget on your iGoogle page and countdown to any date you choose from your Google home page.
jmichelle GimmeSomeTune Nov 4, 2008 1:47 PM One of the best applications I've downloaded to help with my iTunes collection. I am extremely OCD about my iTunes library as well, but I don't feel like paying for fixTunes. I found something else to help with something I'm a bit obsessive over. I absolutely have to have lyrics to my songs whenever possible and with over 3000 songs, it's irritating to put in so many Google searches. GimmeSomeTune does an automatic search for every song without lyrics as soon as it begins playing. It also searches for Album art as well. It's totally free (although they do ask for an optional donation).

GeekSugar Cool Download: Election 08 for Your iPhone Sep 5, 2008 6:00 AM If there has ever been a year to vote, this would be the one to do it! Whether you're a Democrat or a Republican, obviously CitizenSugar has you covered on the details , but Election 08 is a handy little app to have in your pocket as well. For only a buck at the App Store , Election 08 shows you real time results from polls about who is winning each state, and electoral vote estimates on who will take the General Election. Which of course, will either be a helpful tool to keep you informed, or cause you to go totally OCD from checking it every five minutes. Plus you can look back and see state-by-state results of past elections from 1992-2004! Facts that you can whip out at your next "Party" party to impress your pals. Aren't you smart!

There are millions of download-worthy treasures (and some stinkers) out there on the web. In fact, there are so many options that no one person can try them all out. Share your favorite downloads and widgets with me here, tell my why you like them and if I feel the same way, I'll feature them on geeksugar.
