One could say it’s an software update tracker that tracks all the good free software of this world. The first week saw a nice start of the service although there has not been much coverage besides the initial three blog posts linked above. The RSS feed subscriber count is scratching at 1000 subscribers. The 50 Twitter followers would bring the total count above the 1k mark which is great for such a young service.

I have added the RSS feed to the sidebar here at Ghacks which will from now on display the five latest software updates that directly link to the software developer sites. If you have not already subscribed to the Appnews feed I suggest you do so as it will keep you up to date with software developments of great programs that have been covered at our sites.

We are still collecting ideas on how to proceed from here. Some suggestions are offering a widget for websites to include, a directory of programs that are monitored and the inclusion of additional websites that provide the same expertise and quality in their free software reviews.
