1. ReviewsIt's a pleasure to be able to report that we have a new giant Shootout Review for you this month, along with some mini reviews and guides:
2. New Program ReleasesWe love programming and writing new free programs for you to use. Try these brand new releases!
- NEW PROGRAM - TapTap Hotkey Extender - Let your favorite programs respond to special keyboard events. This super efficient tiny little app sits in your system tray and monitors for double taps of ctrl/shift/alt and other special keys, and then triggers standard hotkeys you configure. In this way you can let any of the programs you use respond to these special keyboard events.
- NEW PROGRAM - DC Tiles - You know those tile matching games where you turn over pairs of cards and try to match figures. Well now you can make your own tile matching games using your own pictures and photographs and share them with families and friends. Multiple difficulty levels and fun scoring system.
3. Software UpdatesWe haven't forgotten to update your favorites, and with your support we will keep improving them!
