Giveaway Of The Day

I ran across the Giveaway of the Day Web site the other evening and was intrigued. I’ve watched it for a few days now and have downloaded a couple of the programs it’s offered. Basically, the site has a different piece of commercial software (typically smaller, utility-style stuff but you never know) that it gives away for free for 24 hours. The catch, if you can call it that, is that you can only download any given program during its 24-hour offer period, and you have to install it during that period, as well. If you wait and try to install it later (as I did in once case), the product cannot be successfully registered.
But for free, whatcha gonna do, complain? I mean, come on. Heh. This is an interesting vehicle for getting people to check out other software offered by the companies whose software is featured, I suppose (it shows examples of other software titles offered by each company with links).
Worth checking out. Be sure - as always - to use caution whenever downloading any software from the Internet. Good anti-virus and anti-spyware software is important to have in place and running before you start downloading stuff. Heck, before you ever use the Internet for that matter.
In addition, the site has a freeware library that contains some interesting stuff as well as a Game Giveaway of the Day site. Same methodology, only it’s games you get to play with.
