Want to try your hand at creating .SWFs, but don’t want to spend a mint on Adobe Flash? Then head over to GiveAwayOfTheDay.com and grab yourself a copy of Sothink SWF Quicker. With SWF Quicker you can create new Flash animations or edit ones you already have - and it’s free!

But as the name implies - this offer is only good for today, so be sure to head over and download and install it before midnight tonight (July 14)! This program retails for $84.95, so this is really a deal you should jump on.

We created some cool banners and buttons really fast - even if you are an old pro at Flash you may still want to consider using this for making quick components.

I’m always a bit skeptical when a different shaped mouse comes out - I’ve never seen an ergonomic mouse that is a radical change catch on. I had a mouse several years ago from Microsoft that I really enjoyed - perfect hand position, and it was stationary. Took a little getting used to, but it worked for me. But apparently I was in the minority - they discontinued it. But I’m intrigued by Microsoft Arc Mouse (Black) - it’s got the cool factor in appearance, which seems integral to the success of a new mouse (how cool can you make a mouse? Yeah, you can decorate it, but the shape is the same.) First, it folds, which is nice if you want to stash it and take it along to Starbucks. When you fold it, the mouse turns off, so you preserve battery life (a very nice feature). It also has precise laser tracking - better than optical. And, well, it’s really cool looking.

Find it at Amazon.com for $59.95.
