Google Earth is neat, but replete with UI mistakes (you should never, EVER use a print font like Arial in an application); Streets & Trips 2005 has barely evolved since its first incarnation back in 2001; Microsoft Photostory is not half as nifty as something like Picasa; Ventuz looks interesting, but I can't seem to find a price on it; OneNote requires the Tablet PC to shine; ActiveWords actually does have a UI, and it's a blessing that it runs without one; Office Communicator has me worried, as it may be just another bloated offering; Mindjet's MindManager is amazing, but terribly overcomplicated for n00bz. Find me a Comic Life; a 1001. Even MediaMan pales by comparison to Delicious Library.
