Created to Do Good

We all have our favorites, well this is a quick list of seven free software applications that I use nearly every day. . . (not ZAR) 🙂 thankfully.
In no particular order:

• > Google Desktop

We all need a great local search and honestly microsoft’s default search except in Vista stinks. . . 🙁 Give Google Desktop a try and disable remote searching if you are worried about security. I honestly find this indispensable!

• > Google Picasa

Okay I finally found a photo organizer that works and actually prints good with my Canon Printer. . . .! ! Except for the slightly different select for Red Eye I haven’t found anything yet I don’t like about this gold free application! Including the free Web Album Sharing. . . very nice.

• > Adobe Photoshop Album Starter

Next, I know this and Picasa compete! But hey what’s another photo down loader! 🙂 The thing that I liked about this is it also has a nice photo importer that will grab my pictures automatically on connect so it competes with the default one in Win XP, but I kinda like it and I think it’s easier than XP’s default importer, although my Canon camera came with an application that works slightly smoother but is kinda ugly to look at. . .. 🙂

• > Zero Assumption Software Recovery

Whoops I did it again! So you hit delete too soon on that flash memory card on your camera? No problem, try this software, it literally saved my hide when I deleted my son’s birth day pictures. . . ! ! ! whew, you don’t know how much I was sweating it till I came across this gem.

• > Paint

Did you ever wish Paint had just one more little feature? Rotate, save as another format, (I know they added this in XP, but you get the idea. This free application really fits the bill, it easily replaces those annoying nag ware software apps that come pre-loaded on so many computers and can rotate, modify, and add layers! That is a nice feature. . . .

• > Windows Movie Maker

Have you ever needed an easy way to put together a slide show, home movies, or even your own DVD? Well now you can and the auto highlight feature in this is the BomB! Absolutely the best for taking a slideshow, home movie and outside music and seamlessly easily blending it to make a great home made DVD! wow. . .

• > PDF Creator
  

Did you ever wish you didn’t have to ask that question? Do you have x piece of software? Where x= MS Word, Powerpoint, whatever. . . . Now you can make your own Adobe PDF files from anything you can print. . . This tool is literally the easiest free tool to use. Don’t let someone charge you for this jewel it’s GPL free. . .
