My Frugal Life - destination: simplicity

Blog: destination: simplicity

I am yearning for a simple life. A life surrounded by things I love, a life where I can be thrifty, because I don't need anything other than the bare necessities. I am not there yet, obviously. In this blog I will chronicle my steps towards that (now almost utopia-like) destination.

Why pay for software, when you can get alternatives for free?
Monday, September 11, 2006

If I look at the software on my laptop and palm, I find only one program I paid for, and that is because I could not find a good alternative at the time.

For the rest I use all freeware.

Here is a list of some of my frequently used programs:
Webbrowser: Firefox
Email: Thunderbird
Text/spreadsheet/database: O penoffice
Antivirus: AVGFre e
Music player: Itunes
Picture viewer: Irfanview
Picture resizer: Pixresizer
Dictionary: Wordweb
Harddisk Cleanup: CCleaner
Backup: Cobian
Spyware removal: Spyware Terminator
Bookkeeping: Acemoney lite

I will soon post a list of printables sites, and more free software!
