I was lucky to come across this gaming and technology blog called Buzz99. It has one section where the blogger provides information on free software license keys and as a freebie lover who tries her best not to be a pirate, I found the free programs featured on Bizz99 very useful.

Most of these programs on Buzz99 are premium programs which means that we have to pay to obtain the full license key but sometimes, even premium programs offer free keys. Buzz99 brings us the information when free keys are available.

I find quite a handful of programs featured here quite useful and I think it will take me some time to download the files and explore the programs but I really don’t mind having a few more full-fledged programs on my computer, especially when I don’t have to pay for them!

Really, sometimes you wonder how we used to go to school and study when students these days claim that they cannot study without the computer, without CDs and software to help them!

But anyway, we have to flow with the times. I am sure parents would feel guilty if they are not able to provide technology advancements to their kids, right? Well, there are free software, don’t worry!

This website, Switch In Time, has a slew of student software that were created for a school and are now freeware, though they do not come with guarantees or technical support. Also, please bear in mind that they only run on Mac systems so if you have a Windows system, this site isn’t for you.

I was searching for a free art software when I chanced upon ProDraw. This looks like a very flexible art software that allows for creativity with the ability to animate graphics, create favicon, 3D rendering and web buttons. ProDraw also has a cartoon clips library, wallpaper, image gallery, 3D gallery and a host of other graphics.

If you have been looking for a free art software, you should check out ProDraw Graphics. There are many benefits of using this.

I too would like to use it but have yet to download it. I think I would give this a pass, though, because I am not even creative and would not be able to make the best use of it.

Artweaver: Free Art Program

A few months ago, I wrote about a kid’s art program. My friend told me that I should feature this art program called Artweaver too. According to my friend, she has been having a fin time playing with the free art program.

Now, I must once again stress that I am not artist myself and hardly have a drop of creative juice so I can’t tell why Artweaver is better than other free art programs, or why it is comparable to a premium art program.

However, freebies are hard to resist and I have already downloaded and installed Artweaver. My friend says that there are plenty of brushes to play with, all comes with Artweaver and free to use!

Also, Artweaver has many open-source free add-ons so there’s way more potential to the program than it currently has, depending on what add-ons that developers come up with.

If you are looking for a freeware art program, perhaps Artweaver is the one you should try.

If you have ever designed and printed cards and stationery from your home computer, I am sure you would have heard of this company named Avery. Today, which looking for something else, I chanced upon the website of Avery.

I thought that they are a fully commercialized website but was surprised that they have some freebies on their website too which I think would be fantastic for people looking for free templates and software for their card designing and printing projects, including craft work. These are very useful for home office businesses as well.

Take a look at the website of Avery and maybe download a copy of Avery DesignPro. It’s FREE after all!

My friend told me that she is looking for free drawing software for her daughter. My friend is a graphic designer herself and it looks like her daughter has picked up some drawing skills as well. That was why my friend was eager to introduce computer art to her.

I came across this open source computer art software specially developed for children between the ages of 3 to 12, though older children or even adults could use it. There’s no hard and fast rule, right?

This is a really fun software and I think it would help me to improve on my own drawing skills. It’s pathetic, I tell you. To download Tux Paint, click HERE.

Free Texas Hold’em Poker Strategy Calculator

You probably have learnt of my fascination with Poker. Well, being able to play the game is another issue altogether, though! I believe that if my friends to teach me the tips and tricks of Poker playing, I would be a better player. I am someone who learns faster being shown, than reading a book by myself.

The other day, I was told of this Free Texas Holdem Poker Strategy Calculator. From what I see, this is a computer software that we can download for free and use without limits. While some similar softwares are actually shareware, trial wares or only demo software, this is a fully-functional software that allows us unlimited use.

Although it looks like a pretty good “weapon” to have against our opponents at the Poker table, since this is a computer program, I do not see how we can use this WHILE we are playing Poker. Do we bring along our laptop or something? Perhaps the developers need to make a version for the Apple iPhone.

If you would like an advantage at the Poker table, download this free Texas Hold’em poker strategy calculator and let me know how well it works for you.

Free Music Tool Bar

If you have been following my blog, you will know that lately, I have been busy checking out sites that provide us with free music. Well, this information is much needed after we have been warned of a fine of MYR25,000 if we are caught to download music, movies and other intellectual material illegally.

While I have come across sites that provide free download of music or streaming of music, just now, I was told that we can download a free music toolbar from ListenTopia.com. This toolbar is compatible with both Internet Explorer and FireFox so it makes it very convenient for us to listen to music as we surf the web.

Using this free music toolbar from Listentopia.com, not only will we be able to listen to music endlessly, we will also get to contribute our music to the community to share with other members.

Imagine uploading your full library of songs from your iTunes or WinAmp playlists and stream online your favorite music wherever you are as long as you are connected to the internet!

Ashop Commerce Free Ten Day Trial

Cyberpartygal — Mon, 24 Sep 2007 09:45:46 +0000

Goodies like a free trial for ecommerce software cannot escape a freebie hunter like me so I was delighted to discover that Ashop Commerce is offering a ten day no-hassle obligation free full trial for its shopping cart software. You may wonder why this is good news to me. As you know, I am an online merchant, a minor player only, though, and have not been too happy with my current ecommerce software. With this trial, I will have the chance to try another shopping cart and maybe this will be my perfect solution.

You may know that it is not cheap to buy a fully integrated shopping cart like this so it is a brilliant idea for Ashop Commerce to allow us to test it out before committing ourselves. Besides looking for a total ecommerce solution, what I am looking for is ease of use and user-friendliness. And I believe I am not alone. Well, I HOPE I am not alone. I can’t be that stupid, right??

Whatever the case, if you are currently using a shopping cart software, there’s no harm in giving this a trial run.

Some of you may remember that I run an online store, small it may be. And as long as I am in business, there are accounts to take care of. So far, I have been doing everything manually but then I thought that I would find a free programme so that I could go paperless. My search brought me to this free personal finance manager called AceMoney Lite.

As you can see from the word LITE, there is a premium version of AceMoney with more features, but the Lite version is sufficient for home finances and small businesses. I have yet to try all the features, though, but I am going to set up different accounts for my home and business.

What I do not like about certain software is that they could be pretty confusing and I end up abandoning my projects. I hope that AceMoney will be very user-friendly for me. If you are tying this, please let me know!
