Since delving into the Ubuntu version of the Linux operating system, I’ve been very impressed with the wide array of quality software not only available for Linux, but also for Apple, Windows, and several other specialized operating systems. So here are some of the sites that index totally free software.
The Free Software Directory from the Free Software Foundation (only for free operating systems)
The Free Software Portal from Wikipedia
And let’s not forget the venerable SourceForge.net.
Now, there are many other sources of “free” software and some of them are very good. Google offers some great stuff, WordPress, CNET’s Download.com, and SoftPedia to mention a few. But I wanted to bring to your attention a couple of sites that index software that is totally free in all ways; free to use, free to share, and free to modify.
If you know of other sources of free software, please leave a comment and share.
