Hi mayur! Glad to see you enjoy the real life.
Everybody should do it!
Hmm ! … The article is interesting, but is it of general interest ?
I’ll trust your recommendation and publish it.

Seems to be a very slow and boring week as far as important news is concerned.
Got a couple of links but I am not sure if it is very important, maybe not relevant to all readers, only to some. But they were a good read. For some great online deals using ebay and live.com cashback offers : http://www.wisebread.com/dont-buy-it-now-on-ebay-without-using-livecom-cashback.
There is another older article that describes getting great online deals, good read for deal hunters, but as it is not new, not posting that link.
Twitter Phishing attack: XXXXXXX
I liked Mayur’s news contribution, thanks for that link!
Take care.

Hi Ricky! I hope you don’t mind that I’m leaving it in comments.( for those interested )
We try to focus on software and webware. Though Smashing Magazine is an amazing site! ( we have put ourselves links from SM before, but not about SEO methods )
Thank you!

Hi Blanche! Thank you!
Hi mayur! Unfortunately there are many clones of the same person in our comments section.
We are happy to know you’re not one of them. Got the message ?
Hi guys. Just found this page and want to share with you. Don’t know if it can be considered as important news, anyway it’s for you to decide. See you.

Hi ! ShellCity took it from LifeHacker … Who took it from …
I’ve put the link to LifeHacker in order to have an article talking about that concept.
Hope you don’t mind.
Thank you!
Hi guys !!
If it is important enough do publish.

… But the subject is interesting, anyway.
Hi mayur! Everything coming from you is “important”.
Just joking
Nevertheless note that it is not a “FreewareGenius 5 stars pick”;
Regards!
Hi Mayur and everybody…
I saw a link sometimes ago (maybe at raymond’s forum) about benubird pdf. I then grabbed it and… quickly uninstalled it.
If you need to organize your pdf, I’m sure it’s a ggod app. Like itunes manages music, benubird can organize your pdfs. As I don’t need that, I didn’t try extensively.
Maybe Benubird can help editing pdf. I thought it could. But actually I never found out if it actually can. I for one found this program poorly designed and almost not at all user-friendly.
I didn’t even found simple edition features, like pages removal… Maybe these features exists, I didn’t find them…
Quite disappointing software in my mind…

Found this Device Remover on both ghacks and lifehacker.I downloaded it without a problem,download page in English though the authors homepage only seems to be in German.Basically it gives you a lot more info on your devices compared to Windows Device Manager and works with XP,Vista and Windows7,though it requires Net.2.0.

Hi ! Funny we have accidentally seen the news this morning ( when looking for similar stuff ) !
We intend to check it and to write an article if there’s quality … If you agree, of course.
Thank you!
I am quite interested in reading your article. I do not feel qualified to evaluate software products so I will be glad to know what you think about this and other programs.

Microsoft’s Software Pipeline Set to Burst
“… the company’s product pipeline is stuffed with new software timed for release in the next seven to 12 months that will force corporate IT to deftly plan and strategize how it wants to deal with the onslaught.”
“… companies testing Vista should stop and move to testing Windows 7. The same advice was repeated for users who have not yet moved to Exchange 2007; they were told to skip it and wait for 2010.”
