What's New

Stay Updated (Free) 28 May 2013
  • Are you thinking of starting a blog, where you can quickly pen your thoughts on whatever topic you choose? Check out the newest entry on the Free Blog Hosts (ie, free blogging services) page. The free blog hosts listed there let you create your own blog by typing in your entries using a web browser. (It's not actually the best way to start a website, but it's probably the easiest.)
14 May 2013 8 May 2013 26 April 2013
  • Do you fancy creating an app (be it a game or some other application) for your Android smartphone or tablet, but don't want to have to go through a lengthy computer programming course? Now you can, and you can even do it (ie, create the program) on your smartphone itself. Or if that's too troublesome, you can also use a computer (Windows, Mac OS X or Linux). Check out the latest graphical language to be added to the Free Educational Programming Languages page. (Don't be deceived by my listing it in the education page. It's actually a usable language. I listed it there because it can be used to teach programming to children as well.)
17 April 2013
  • Another open source 3D game engine has been added to the Free Games Programming Libraries and Source Code page. This one lets you create both Windows and browser-based games, and comes with a suite of development tools that you can use to design your game world (eg, terrain, forests, roads, rivers, materials, particles, etc), a scripting language, networking support (so you can create multiplayer games), and so on.
4 April 2013 19 March 2013
  • Are you looking for email software? A new program has been added to the Free Email Clients page. Email clients are programs that let you read and write email on your own computer without relying on a web-based email service. Since your email is stored on your own computer, you will never run out of space (unless your hard disk is full), nor do you have to worry about the online service being inaccessible or closing down.
13 March 2013 13 February 2013 9 January 2013
  • Microsoft Expression Web 4 has now been added to the Free HTML Editors and WYSIWYG Web Editors page. Yes, you read the implication of my previous sentence correctly. This WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) web editor, which you can use to create a website, is now available free of charge. Get it while it's still obtainable.
19 December 2012 12 December 2012
  • If you fancy installing your own web email facility on your own website, check out the newest addition to the Free Web Mail PHP Scripts (Email Clients) page. This one supports MIME, HTML email, unlimited users, multiple sender identities, an address book with "find-as-you-type" facility, and so on. A web email facility for your own website can be used either to provide a convenient interface for you to access your email, or alternatively, if you're bent on conquering the world, allows you to set up a competing service to overthrow Gmail.
22 November 2012
  • Added another console program to the Free Command Line Shells page. This one is not strictly a standalone shell but a wrapper that allows you to run other shells (like the Windows command prompt, Powershell, etc) in tabbed windows. It also enables you to select text the way you do in a text editor (instead of the normal awkward way of the default shell). If you feel frustrated and crippled using the command prompt or console window on your system, check out this page to find numerous other more powerful alternatives.
31 October 2012
  • If you are looking for software to burn (ie, create) CDs or DVDs, check out the newest two computer programs to be added to the Free CD and DVD Burners and Copying Software page. One is for Mac OS X and the other for Windows. Both the programs can create data discs, audio discs as well as video discs. (And if you don't like them, there are other free programs listed on the page as well.)
18 October 2012
  • If you are looking for an audio codec that handles speech and music, is open source and royalty free, take a look at the newest entry on the Free Lossless and Lossy Audio Encoders / Compressors page. Loosely speaking, audio codecs are software that reduce the size of audio files while attempting to preserve as much of the original audio quality as possible. They are also able to decode the compressed file so that it can be played normally.
1 October 2012
  • Tofrodos 1.7.12 is now available. Sorry for the quick succession of versions. With this release, all bugs known to me have been fixed.
27 September 2012
  • Tofrodos 1.7.11 has been released. Tofrodos is an open source computer program for Linux, Windows, Mac OS X (and other systems) for converting text files between the DOS/Windows and the Unix/Linux/OS X formats. It is useful if you have to work with files transferred from these systems.
17 September 2012
  • The new free Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Express, featuring the latest versions of their C++ compiler, Visual Basic compiler, and C# compiler, has now been released. If you're thinking of writing computer programs in C++, Visual Basic or C# on Windows, check it out.
12 September 2012 29 August 2012
  • A new free and open source font from Adobe has been added to the Free Fonts page. This is a high quality sans-serif font that is designed for legibility and comfort in reading.
3 August 2012 5 July 2012 28 June 2012
  • If you want to create a web-based database application that can directly access your data via a browser (even from a mobile phone using Android), check out the newest addition to the Free / Open Source NoSQL (Non-SQL) Database Servers and Engines page. Your application can be written in JavaScript and will use HTTP to access the database.
12 June 2012
  • Are you tired of the clumsy and inefficient way that you have to operate when you use the default Windows explorer for doing things like copying files between 2 folders, comparing files/folders, or viewing the inside of archives? Check out the newest addition to the Free File Managers and Graphical Shells page. Those using other operating systems, like Mac OS X, Linux and FreeBSD, can also find replacements for their default file managers.
31 May 2012 22 May 2012
  • Are you looking for a way to create a PDF file? Or perhaps you are thinking of publishing an ebook and are considering the different document formats that you can use for the book. A new software for creating PDF documents has been added to the Free PDF Converters, Editors and Printer Drivers page. Like many of the other freeware listed there, this program also lets you password-protect your PDF file, prevent copying/pasting, etc.
14 May 2012
  • Do you like tinkering with operating systems ("OS") but find the major open source OSes to be too large and complicated to figure out? A new tiny operating system for the x86 processors has been added to the Free Alternative Operating Systems page. It fits into less than 64KB of memory, can be used from a USB flash drive, a floppy or a CD, and is written entirely in assembly language. Check it out.
11 May 2012 19 April 2012
  • Have you accidentally deleted a file that you now want to use? Check out the newest software to be added to the Free Data Recovery, File and Partition Recovery, Undelete and Unformat Software page. This program can recover files removed from hard disks, USB flash drives and memory sticks, which means that it can handle files deleted on computers, digital cameras, smart phones, and other such devices.
11 April 2012
  • New page: Free PHP Compilers: compile PHP scripts to native code, .NET or Java bytecode. Are you looking for a PHP native code compiler, one that can produce an executable file (eg, .exe or .dll for Windows), that you can distribute without your revealing your source code? Or perhaps you're looking for some way to speed up your PHP programs and figure that a script compiled to machine code may help. Check out the new Free PHP Compilers page for some free and/or open source solutions.
30 March 2012
  • New page: What Banks Need to Know Before Getting a New Domain Name. I was interviewed by the American Bankers Association's Bank Marketing Magazine on the things that banks need to be aware of when they get a new domain name. An edited version of that interview is now available online.
