Giveaway of the Day

I love this site and have subscribed to it in my reader for several years.  Not all the daily offerings are something I'd use or want to try, but I have gotten some good free software from there.

I would caution anyone from going strictly by the ratings;  the site has had quite a few media converters and people really get their panties in a wad over that.  Instead, read the reviews because those are generally from the more knowledgeable users and there's usually several people who post free and sometimes better alternatives.

They also have a widget you can embed in your blog or website:

The software is only available for one day, though.  I wanted to try this program and made a mental reminder to download it later but fell asleep and when I woke up I hurried to the site and saw this message:

There's also a "sister" site, Game Giveaway of the Day but it's now limited to free games only on the weekends.

One of my favorite sites; I am subscribed to the feed as so to not miss a chance on some great, free software.

Granted, not all of the freebies will appeal to you or be something you would want, but I have snagged some nifty and useful programs from the site.

The one major "catch" is that you must download and activate the program on the day that it's offered.  Also, some of the programs don't offer any support.  Still, the price is right!

Here's a ticker to put on blogs and websites showing the day's offering.
