Discover Heaps of Free Software at Open Source Living

By Michael Calore December 27, 2007 Categories: Software & Tools

A new directory for finding free-to-use and open-source software applications has emerged. Open Source Living lists the most popular open-source applications for a wide variety of tasks — ripping DVDs, browsing the web, chat clients, coding tools, audio players, you name it.

OSLiving’s directory is neatly organized and the listings (for the most part) provide clear indications about what operating systems are supported by each of the apps. So far, there’s no way to narrow down the lists to show just Windows or just Mac OS X applications, but that’s probably something you can suggest in the forums.

You won’t find every open-source app under the sun here, either. The
list is curated to provide a directory of only the most top-quality,
widely used apps. That’s the mission and they’re sticking to it. It’s
much cleaner and easier to use than SourceForge or VersionTracker,
which in turn makes discovering new apps much easier.
