Free Software Recommendations for Windows Users
Open source software is software that is free to use, change, and improve (if you have the skills and time to help out).
The site I am pointing out tody is one that lists the best Open Source software available to windows users.
It includes most of the well known ones like Firefox, Thunderbird and Kompozer, but also some less well known open source programs which you may find are useful additions to your online weaponry.
For example – do you already use Audacity – I find that really useful for audio editing. I didn’t see the brilliant jZip there though.
Some proprietary software programs are just too expensive (if utterly brilliant – like for example Adobe Photoshop) when you are just starting out or when you are not yet sure you want to invest in a technology, and that it will support your business goals.
The answer can be to cut your business teeth on open source software.
