Over the next couple of months we will be featuring a blog series highlighting some of our favorite open source desktop applications. These applications can make you more productive, save you money, and sometimes be just plain fun to use. It seems like almost everything is done on a computer these days so why not be informed on some powerful open source applications to make your life easier? We will be focusing on a few applications from topic areas such as Graphic Design, Productivity, Operating Systems, Internet, and System Utilities – applications many of us use everyday!
According to Sourceforge, one of the leading resources for open source software development and distribution, “With the tools we provide, 2.7 million developers create powerful software in over 260,000 projects. Our popular directory connects more than 46 million consumers with these open source projects and serves more than 2,000,000 downloads a day.” Due to the sheer number of open source applications, we will only touch on a few that we have found to be extremely useful to us on a daily basis.
