Places are filling fast for our developer-focused Lifehacker Meetups, so make sure to sign up if you’re keen to come along. We’ve got awesome prizes, great food and drinks, fun trivia and a chance to hang out with your peers, thanks to the Windows Azure team at Microsoft.
We all have our methods of organising ideas, be it low-tech in the form of sticky notes or some cutting-edge mobile app. There’s also the reliable whiteboard, which combines the simplicity of just writing your thoughts down with the ability to annihilate them just as quickly. Sure, you could buy a whiteboard and find a place for it, but what if you could transform the walls of an entire room — say your study or the office meeting room — into erasable drawing surfaces?
It’s rare to see more than 25 per cent off for iTunes cards, so note this: Harvey Norman has a buy one get one free deal in store on $20 iTunes cards, but only between 10am and 11am on Saturday May 26. There could well be crowds, despite a limit of one deal per customer. [via OzBargain]

Surprisingly, though, it’s never had an official Australian release, with local enthusiasts stuck with buying one from overseas. That’s about to change, with CR Kennedy taking on official Australian distributor duties.
Developers everywhere are discounting apps for the long weekend in the US. We bring you the ‘Because We May’ sale for iOS and Android, EA’s massive discount on a whole bunch of games, plus heaps of other reductions.

The long-in-the-making merger of pay TV providers FOXTEL and AUSTAR finally became official this week after being approved in April. What difference does that make for existing customers? The short answer: aside from a few extra free channels, not much.
