With Christmas just around the corner, it’s that time of year again, when advent calendars start popping up, filled with lots of fabulous free giveaways. Giving you the opportunity to snag free applications for just one day, be sure to bookmark your favourite calendars, and start each morning with a free app or prize, available for only 24 hours. Advent calendars aren’t just limited to iPhone or Android apps, but also includes discount vouchers, books, mugs, and even fonts.
We’ve put together a list of Advent calendars that have been running for a few days now, but there’s still 3 weeks worth of prizes and apps to snag, so hurry over to these calendars and start stocking up on lots of freebies.

AdFont

Typography buffs will be delighted to know that FontDeck is giving away one free font a day in their 2010 Advent Calendar giveaway. While it requires a free signup on the site in order to download the fonts, you’ll get one premium font for free per day to use for your posters, websites and all your designing needs.

GameLoft

GameLoft is offering a free game a day in their Advent Calendar for both iPhone and Android users. Follow their Twitter account to be sure you don’t miss out on your daily surprise – which strangely enough doesn’t always actually include a free app but rather sometimes is just a video. Each gift will be available for 24 hours until the next app is revealed.

AppVent are back again this year, giving away one free iPhone/iPad app AND game a day. The apps are available for free on the iTunes app store for free for an entire day. From racing to puzzle games to note-taking apps, in just the first few days, there’s still much to come from AppVent for the rest of the month.

T3

T3 are running an Android Appvent Calendar with one new free app available on their site everyday.

Build Your Own Awesome Personal 3D Avatar with Avatara

Do you use social networks and want to build your own awesome 3D avatar? Maybe you want to send someone a cute cuddly image of yourself (kind of)? Or maybe you have your own ideas of what you would do with an Avatar… Well look no further than Avatara which I discovered from the MakeUseOf directory . You can create 3d avatars out of pre-set up templates or create your own from scratch. To start, visit Avatara’s homepage . You will see this screen: Click Get Started to umm, get started! That will take you to this screen: You see that you can build your own Avatar using an uploaded head shot like the Obama one above (just an example, guys). Or roll with one of their awesome avatars.

That works out to a flat fee of $89.95 annually. The deal is a limited-time promotion, as opposed to a permanent pricing change, but MoviePass didn’t say how long the offer is valid. However, it is open to both new and existing subscribers – the latter who would receive a 25 percent savings on their current subscription if switching over to the annual plan. This is not the first time that MoviePass has dropped its pricing. When the company introduced its $9.95 per month, one-movie-per-day plan this August, down from $15 for 2 movies per month (or more in select markets like L.A. and NYC, and going as high as $50), it saw so many new sign-up...
