Free SoftwareFor the New Year

Maybe one of your goals is to be more economical. Well then going “open source” and finding free software or online solutions might be for you.

If you are currently a student or just looking for a wide variety of good free software, in order to live a more economical life, SoftwareForStudents is definitely something of interest. SoftwareFor has put together a nice package called SoftwareForStudents, a CD image of software into the following categories: Art & Graphics, Astronomy & Space, Computer Science, Games, Internet, Keboarding, Multimedia, Office, Personal Finance, Security, Studying and Utility.
The CD image, can be downloaded either with a torrent file or directly. Although my first reaction was, this interface is great for a cookbook. So perhaps if you can recommend any good cookbooks for poor students, leave a comment. (Via amongst others Digg.)

I have recently talked about some other online applications:
Sound – JamGlue Online Sound Mixing
Graphing Calculator – Calc5 Your Online Graphical Calculator
Note taking – Study Effectively with Noise and Stu.dicio.us
Data archive and graphing – Swivel – Innovative Data Monopoly
