Wanting to check out a "few" new apps? Thanks in part to the Boxee dev challenge, Boxee has a boatload of new apps to show off. The list has some really ingenious ones and some incredibly bizarre ones, but you can't argue that there aren't enough apps these days can you?
Boxee's dev is open for voting so if you're a Boxee user and want to vote for your favorite app do so before the polls close on June 22nd at 11:59pm PT.
Winners will be announced at the Boxee event in San Francisco on June 23rd .
They also plan to launch the Windows version of Boxee, announce new partnerships and share more info about the boxee beta at the event. More info at the Boxee Blog
