340715 2005-04-02 09:36:00 I was wondering, with all the little applications online (such as Everest, Drivercleaner, etc.) that we ask people to download, wouldn't it be a better idea if these applications were all stored on one site, that could be linked to?
I realise it may be a bigger job than it seems (getting application makers permission etc to host their applications), and someone to actually make and host the site... but its just an idea.
What do you think?

340716 2005-04-02 09:38:00 Probably links to their sites would be better - that way far less work, and the files will still be downloaded from the maker's site, saving copyright issues. somebody (208)
340717 2005-04-02 09:48:00 Agree with somebody. In that way the download should always be the latest version. :cool: Scouse (83)
340718 2005-04-02 09:58:00 This sounds like the download facility at www.pcworld.co.nz... Growly (6)
340719 2005-04-02 12:08:00 But the latest nifty utilities are always changing. Easier to just post a link. pctek (84)
340720 2005-04-02 14:16:00 Didn't there used to be a FAQ of users favorite app's with links? 4bes (2848)
340721 2005-04-02 21:09:00 Nzguy2004 (or thewhiz) has setup a download site as you have mentioned,

ilikelinux.geek.nz Although he probably has a shorter domainname for it, but i have no idea what it is.
