Software Updates Week 33 2008
It's a bit late for this week's software updates. It is almost Thursday and I had to hurry to finish the post today. This week saw many software updates like the last weeks. It has become a time consuming process and I'm thinking of ways to reduce the time it takes to compile the articles.
This week again saw some interesting software updates which were a bit overshadowed by the release of Google's entry in the browser market. Besides that updates for Digsby, Filezilla and the Orca Browser were released this week.
The update of the week award goes to Opera this time which surely can use some help to finally get the market share it deserves.
