I’d like to point out that Opera is an AWESOME browser. Especially as you can use the spacebar to open links in Lots, but not all, of web pages.

Also, drop OpenOffice, and pick up LibreOffice instead. It is essentially the same except the developers have cleaned up the code and it is much more stable and faster. Oracle bought out Sun Systems who owned OO. Also, LibreOffice is much more compatible with MSOffice products now.

I have to point out that GIMP is not the freeware version of Photoshop, it is in fact a freeware alternative to photoshop. It has no tie in at all to Photoshop. Small point, but some people may have been taken in thinking it was part of the Adobe organisation.

GotFreeFax.com is another website that allows user to send free faxs online to the US and Canada. User can either upload a PDF/Word file or enter text to fax. Plus, it does not add Ads to user’s fax, which makes it more suitable for faxing formal documents.

As a Christian, I strongly disagree that Wikipedia is in the “best” category.

Their official policy is not to “censor for minors” and Wikipedia is saturated with obscene material, even in unexpected places where children are likely to find it. I have spent many hours trying to get this material removed, and have gotten nowhere.

You are FAR better off with a traditional encyclopedia. Wikipedia is a bastion of smut, lies, and bias. I hope that you will not continue to promote it.
