MacLampsX is a simple and fun little app to make your holiday season a little more festive while you’re sitting at your desk. I love breaking it out each year. If you want to try it out, you can download it here. MacLampsX is a fun application for decorating your desktop with different kinds of festive lights. Managing contacts is one of the most important and challenging activities in business. Unfortunately, though, there are still a lot of business people, from solopreneurs, or those engaged in small and medium-sized businesses and corporations that fail to do it efficiently.
The Holidays are here again, and so are the holiday themed apps. Popular games like Angry Birds Seasons have been updated with Christmas levels, and there are countless holiday apps now available on the App Store. I decided to highlight a few here.
Mac Apps

Scattered Flurries
Maclamp For Sale
For a wintery storm every time you screen dims, download Scattered Flurries, a free screensaver that blows snow across your screen. The app snaps a picture of your desktop, dims the brightness, and starts to snow. You can adjust the amount of snow, the speed at which it falls, and the background image. You can download it for free from here: http://bit.ly/MacFlurries
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
iOS Apps
Angry Birds Seasons
Everyone knows and loves Angry Birds, so why not purchase a seasonal version for only $0.99? About every other month, there’s a free update with many new levels, so the fun never ends! This holiday season, Seasons was updated with Wreck the Halls, an advent-calendar-style Countdown to Christmas, with one new level every day. It’s great for getting you in the holiday spirit. To download it, click here.
Happy Holidays, pigs!
Paper Snow
When real snow is too cold, paper snowflakes have always been a festive alternative. When you’re trying to save paper, the best way to make paper snowflakes is on your iPad. Just download the free app Paper Snow, and you’ll be making snowflakes in no time. Just cut out your snowflake, and you can share it with Twitter, email it to a friend, or save it to your Camera Roll. It’s great to kill time. Grab it from here.

Here’s a fun little holiday post. So you are feeling festive for the holiday season and want a cool way to decorate your computer desktop–I have the perfect app for you. The app is called MacLampsX and it’s completely free.
Here’s what MacLampsX can look like
While the app hasn’t been updated for a few years, it still works as of macOS Mojave (the current release of macOS as of December 2018). To make it as easy as possible to download, I’m hosting the app on my server. You can download it here.
Once you have the app downloaded, open the DMG file and drag the MacLampsX icon into your Applications folder. With the app installed, open it from your Applications folder and you’ll be able to start customizing your desktop with various festive Christmas lights, snowflakes, and holly.
The app also offers a snowflake screensaver that you can enable. Plus, you can even set music to play when the screensaver comes on. Want a little Mariah Carey All I Want for Christmas Is You to play as snow falls on your screen? Now you can!
