PCWorld's 101 Fabulous Freebies

Posted on June 12, 2006

PCWorld.com has created a great list of free online tools called 101 Fabulous Freebies.

There's never been a better time to be a cheapskate. Free utilities? We've got 'em. Want a full-fledged image editor? A few gigabytes of mail storage? How about an entire office software suite? We can top that, easy. Take the whole earth and solar system. Free!
If you thought that the golden age of free stuff ended when the dot-com bubble burst, guess again. The past few years have seen an explosion of giveaways--both Web-based services and free software--that make the anemic home-page building apps and first-generation Web mail services of the late 1990s pale in comparison.

Some Web 2.0 list and organizer tools like BackPack, storage tools like Yahoo Briefcase and photo sharing tools like Flickr are among the 101 freebies. The list also includes search tools, browsers, calendars, bookmark tools, blogging services, rss readers and video sharing tools. You can also look at list alphabetically and by category.
