In looking for software upgrades and installation instructions last night, I came across a rather unique web site – Softpedia. Don’t let their “…the encyclopedia of free software downloads!” one-liner lead you in the wrong direction. Yes. They have, what I think is one of the most comprehensive, easy-to-use and attractive web sites devoted to free software that I’ve seen in a long time. But, their site doesn’t stop there. They post news about software, various electronic products and the people who make/design them. You’ll find reviews and analysis. What drew me to them were their precise instructions for installing Ubuntu ver. 8.04 [Hardy Heron]. So, if you’re shopping or just keeping tabs on the cycber marketplace, Softpedia is definitely worth a look. As another slogan announces, “Updated one minute ago.”
