KeyNote

Version: 1.6.5

End of my search

Pros: After downloading, installing, trying, and removing over a dozen note programs, I was lucky enough to find Keynote. Perfect. Folders on the left, notes on the right. An intelligent alternative to Golden Sections, a similar program. Keynote is perfect for writers and mind-doodlers, or for anyone with a need to organize his thoughts. And it's FREE!

Cons: Nothing.

WeBuilder 2008

Version: 9

THE Best

Pros: After plowing through probably a dozen free editors (PS Pad is my choice in that category) and several trial versions, I feel as if I've struck the mother lode. This is the only editor that allows not just code folding (collapsing currently irrelevant sections) but gives the choice of hiding selected code! Another feature, which can be found on some editors, is matching brackets -- shows what goes with what -- no small matter in PHP while and if structures. WeBuilder is filled with lots of other goodies. It's linked to LocalHost (I use WAMP) and the Preview tab at the bottom makes for easy viewing. Tabs at the bottom also include Horizontal and Vertical split screens.

The only program which comes close to this is PHP Designer, a pricey alternative.

Cons: Not free, but here you DO get what you pay for.

Virtual Poet

Version: 2.2.303

Absolutely horrible!

Pros: The Title

Cons: It is not a rhyming program, but a letter pattern matching program. I typed in gas (how about "mass" or "class"? -- not listed). It came up with four words which didn't rhyme but ended in -as. On which did was simply gas with the prefix de-. Gads, how about less programming and more English classes!!!

Active Desktop Calendar

Version: 7.46

Most Functional of All

Pros: It's right there but not in your face. if it irritates, change the colors or position to suit. After trying dozens of calendars over the years, this is my favorite.

If you're looking for a comprehensive list of holidays and events, go to Calendar Mine; if you're after usefulness, Active Desktop Calendar is the end of your search. Alarms ( that actually work!), an array of customizable features, and accurate loading with Windows make it a pleasure to use. Icing on the cake for me is the exporting and importing of tasks and notes with complete ease. Great program!

Cons: Nothing.

Pazera Free MP4 To AVI Converter

Version: 1.1

No Problems

Pros: Converted an M4V file I had to download because that was wthe only format available on the site. The Pazera interface is easy to use with two output choices -- AVI or MPEG. Worked without a hitch. Recommended.

Cons: Nothing. It serves its one purpose well.
