I like free. Do you? Did you know I like free things? Free RULES! Ok, so you get the point. We all love things that are free. I wanted to pass along a free program to you. Not only is it free… it’s an index of MORE free stuff.

FreewarePub KidiFree is a free utility you can download right to your desktop. You will discover free software that probably never knew existed. There are currently 546 different programs and applications listed in the index. You can see each program’s icon, description, file size, ratings and even screen shots. It even gives you the ability to make lists of your favorite programs… and submit more freeware programs to them.

The only issue I know of is that the programmer is French. You can switch to the English language, of course. You may still have some difficulties getting around, but each program has links for their website. If you cannot understand what the description translation is telling you, just go check out that program’s website for more information.

KidiFree is very well designed, and simple to use. I’d love to see something like this for Windows. It’s a vetted list of software. In many cases, you’ll even get a screenshot. This is really, really cool. So if you’re using a Mac or thinking about using one… be sure to check out KidiFree.

There's never been an easier way to test software without destroying your primary operating system's stability. Think of how many times you wish you could press a 'reverse' button on your computer. Plus, there's no easier way to try new Linux distributions - see what all the fuss is about.
