Floppy drives are a thing of the past and CD drives seem to be on their way out as well. USB flash drives and higher definition optical disks have replaced them. Today, newer portable data technologies appear faster than ever to satisfy the insatiable cutting edge appetite.

After much time spent designing and programming, I am releasing another blog that is going to be written by myself.

Read more about this new blog and my explanation in the first introductory post. Like the other blogs that I started in the past, I will be moving some articles on this blog to the new hacker blog for relevance.

I hope you become a regular reader of this blog!

Hey Everybody,

I spontaneously decided to buy a dedicated domain name for the freeware review. Instead of the http://freeware.art-app.com subdomain, I am using the http://www.freewarereview.info domain. I’ve also changed the permalink structure for individual posts to make the articles more search engine friendly. I also changed the permalink structure for The Information Bank. In addition, I have instituted permalink and domain redirects to make the transition easier. You may not even notice anything at all! That is a good thing. If you do notice any problems, please notify me! Remember to update your bookmark, link, and feed URLs accordingly too!

Thanks!
Allan
