Product Description:

At Woot.com one hugely-discounted product is released each evening at 12 midnight (Monday - Friday). This product is available for only 24 hours or until it totally sells out. This widget displays the current-selling product at Woot.com.

What's new in this version:

3.0.8 has been significantly rewritten, to the extent that it doesn't resemble the original code much. Aside from the essentially invisible stuff like tightening up some of the code, this version adds a few significant features:

  • Growl notification support for new woots, sold out woots, and wootoffs
  • Mostly related to the above, it will auto-refresh at predefined intervals -- designed to be gentle rather than frantic, so I wouldn't rely on them for up-to-the second information, but the interval is significantly shorter during a wootoff
  • Settings now persist across sessions, so you don't have to rearrange after rebooting
  • In theory, anyway, it should recognize wootoffs. There hasn't been one since all the rewriting, so I can't be sure.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.4 Intel
  • Mac OS X 10.4 PPC

Additional Requirements:

  • Mac OS X 10.4 or higher

Woot.com Widget ReviewAmazingly good. - Version: 4.1.1, 10/31/2009 08:12PM PST

I love this widget. Even though the wootoffs it is great. Put it in mini mode and pull the widget into the corner (in dev mode) and you can watch the wootoff roll.

Could use audio notification for low / sold out items.

Woot.com Widget Troubleshooting ReportNew formatting - Version: 3.5.3, 1/15/2009 07:52AM PST

Looks like woot changed up the formatting again. I see the product image, but all the info says (unknown), and the availability button says "sold out" when it is still available.

BTW... I love this widget, keep up the good work!

Woot.com Widget ReviewBug w/ new webpage format - Version: 3.5.1, 8/13/2008 09:13AM PST

Love the program. Just a quick note: In the last week or so woot has changed the format of its webpages. They have more pictures on the front page than they did before, thus the picture that shows up in the widget isn't always the product (i.e. the shirt.woot product picture shows up in the place of the woot.com's product). Minor issue for the next version. Keep up the great product.
