Comprehensive Reviews
I found out about your site about two weeks ago when somebody from my "internet home", (http://www.dslreports.com), posted a link to your best text-editor review. I read it and immediately fell in love with the site and the style of the review. It's really hard to find solid, comprehensive software reviews these days. DonationsCoder.com topped everything I had seen before. I don't know what it is... either people don't realize that when you are in the market to buy software you'd like an in-depth, real-world, hands-on, insightful review of the application you intend to buy, or there simply aren't enough sites out there made by people who are willing to spend their time testing software thoroughly and then writing about it..I just love the site.

Newsletter for May 29th, 2009 - Codename "Hello Mr. Heatwave"

1. Newsletter Editorial

Greetings all, and welcome to another edition of the DonationCoder.com newsletter.

Way back in 2005 I wrote a comprehensive review of desktop email client applications, and ended up picking RITLab's TheBat as my program of choice.  I'm still a happy user.  Last week DC member Innuendo wrote a mini-review of a spam blocking tool for it and the developers were nice enough to donate several copies for us to give away and extend a big discount to supporting DC members (see section 3 below).

And finally, this is your very last minute reminder that if you are going to be anywhere near Germany on May 31st, you need to find a way to get to the DC meetup in Berlin at the c-base geek bar/club that DC members housetier and gjehle help run.  It's a very cool place, and most importantly we've sent ahead some very cool, and very rare, custom DonationCoder Cody Spaceship mugs that will be on hand to be given out to DC members who show up.  These are going to be collector's items one day so don't miss your chance to get one now! See the post below and let housetier and ghehele know if you will be attending.
